Me, too. I see ebooks as cannibalizing the market for mass market paperbacks.

Marketing is the big reason I don't see commercial publishing going away - it may change drastically, but I just can't see it vanishing. Having to do your own marketing is probably the biggest drawback of going indie, and I'm not saying that just because I hate doing it.

Agreed. You can argue that they do it poorly (and in many cases it will be true), but
selling books is what publishers
do.
