I agree with you. Things will improve. I look forward to the precision matching the authority of a printed version. Sometimes I read a sentence and think, "Is this what it really says? Because, if you just change this letter... etc."
And some books (not a large publisher) like In The Beginning by Isaac Asimov which was digitized by e-reads is absolutely dreadful and the print version should be preferred when wishing to quote from it or use it as a source of any sort of information (even though I only have the ebook edition). It appears they digitized the volume, slapped an ePub cover on it and put it out there. There are simple problems on every page resulting from innacurate OCR scans.
