mysweety if it would be that simple...
Yes, there is a lot of stuff out there published just because "that sells ATM - let's follow"
Nevertheless there IS a lot of good stuff too where big pub-houses have their hands on, and I won't be lying to myself telling that's all crap.
What I'm actually doing is writing to said houses asking about DRM-free editions, whereby I honestly point out that I'd rather be willing to sell my pback editions and buy uncrippled e-books, but if there 's no such offer, I'd keep the paper and do the ebooks based on these by myself. My hope is that there might be more people doing so, thus the publishers realize where the money is to be taken from.
and YES I'm nasty enough to wait and grab a used pback just to assure my wallet-vote doesn't backfire into "people want pbooks".
If they want to learn it the same hard way recording companies did - well it's a pity but certainly not my fault.
