The only way I know to vote is with your purchases. If those authors who refuse to allow electronic publishing see a decline in the purchase of their pBooks, they will reconsider. I don't recall seeing any recent percentages of eBook reader platforms, but as the number of eReaders gradually begins to represent the majority of consumers, publishers will begin to provide either a single, universal format (remember the Betamax vs. VHS war), or they will publish in multiple formats. Sadly, it just takes time. In the meantime, serious readers have chosen their readers by considering the most appropriate source for their chosen reading material and/or have expanded their material base by either format conversion or by purchasing multiple eReaders.
