Agree.
And even, I still think that it is a non sens to pay more for error free ebooks. As ebooks or book supposed to be free of errors.

Or it would mean some publisher don't pay a corrector to check error and correct them versus publisher who do it. So there are able to reduce the price of the book. And would clearly mean cheaper error version are done by non professional publisher (as last correction supposed to be done by publisher).

Well, in France it would be not possible as there is a fixed price. Who ever is selling it, the price is the same.
