Where I do think eBooks come into play in your argument - I think eBook readers will be more reactionary with their reviews than pBook readers because eBooks don't provide the same ability to judge a book before downloading. Even if a book is free, we've invested precious reading time in it. If I've wasted time reading a book I felt was misrepresented, yes, I'm going to sound off about it online.
I have to agree with this. I just bought an e-book whose content was not what I expected, because of the lack of information on the retailer's site. Though I also have to say the same happened to me with a paper book I bought from Amazon.
