I feel they really need to sell the e-books while the market is hot. Except for a few authors, if it is not available in e when I first hear about the book I probably will not buy it when it comes out later. Other books will have caught my eye by then. And I am the kind of customer they really should want to keep. I bought over $50.00 of books a month when I read only p-books, but that number jumped to over $100.00 after I switched to mostly e-books. (Yes,I have a problem with impulse shopping

)
