That's very sad to hear. I hope Bailey gets better, and that regardless of how future Baen e-books come out, at least they maintain the current Webscriptions site and the ability to purchase/access the existing stuff.

Frankly, it would probably be good for Baen to also have their catalogue also up on Amazon, hopefully DRM-free like O'Reilly's, for those potential buyers who don't care anything about having multiple formats available or not being tied to any one platform, so long as they can conveniently 1-click from their Kindle and sync up their books.

I've seen any number of people on the Amazon discussion boards say they love such and such author's books, shame they aren't available for the Kindle, and then have to be pointed at the Baen Free Library/Webscriptions and gently walked through the process of putting a non-Amazon book on their Kindle.

And that's just the ones who bother to comment and stick around for the instructions.
