Baen can.

Baen has been selling e-books in multiple formats, without DRM, two dollars cheaper than a mass-market paperback, from the hour the hardback comes out. And it has been doing this for, what, a decade?

If Baen can, why should I buy the idea that other publishers can't?

Am I supposed to think Baen is secretly funded by the Venusian Coalition to Destroy Terran Publishing, or something?
