You
could... one thing people don't much think about is the possibility of combining e-books with voice output software, and having the books
read to you by your reader/computer. This essentially makes it an audiobook, and although it surely won't sound as good as an audiobook read by a voice professional, it could be listened to while jogging, driving, bathing, etc. (And hopefully someday electronic voice synthesis will be improved enough to compete with human voice quality.)
I thought the interview was wonderfully comprehensive of the e-book industry and e-books' issues and advantages.
