*shrug* I just buy the books that they don't offer download files for from someplace else--they lose the sale, I still get my book. (Well, usually. There was one book I wanted that wasn't available anywhere as an ebook, except through Google, and I'd been looking for this book for a long time. So that time I bit the bullet and read it with the Google Books app on my iPad. But in the majority of cases, if they don't offer download files, they lose my dollars to someone else. Just last week I bought "Wolf Hall" and "Juliet, Naked" from Sony's bookstore instead of Google Books specifically because Google--perplexingly--doesn't offer download files for those two titles. What's up with that? Everyone else has them.)
