It's possible that we're at a transitional stage from dead-tree books being the norm to ebooks being the norm. I think the transition may take a surprisingly long time because although we have canned music as a comparison, it's not all that close an analogy.
I think that as the e-market expands a lot of the nonsense is going to have to get chucked out -- geographic restrictions, single mutually incomprehensible formats, possibly DRM; and a lot more flexibility is going to come in, whether the industry wants it now or not.
