I did download some of the Sony Classics you get free, but three chapters into "Dracula" and I'm thinking you get what you pay for. At least this title frequently has multiple words smashed together, which usually throws me out of the 'zone' when I'm reading.
Unfortunately I get this "smashed together words" in almost every book I purchase on the connect site. I hate it. I actually had one book that averaged two instances a page (on medium font). I have actually written both the publishers and Sony with no response.

This is one reason that the job of copy editor was created.
