Today publishers have value in that they created the infrastructure that allows pBooks to be sold cheaply to the masses.
That infrastructure is not needed in the eBook world.
Publishers bring no value to the eBook market. A booming eBook market will mean that most publishers will die, so the last thing they want is to make eBooks popular.
