I have found a few ebooks that were probably not meant to be by their publishers, but those are very, very few and far between.

Not
too depressing, I hope.
Personally, I find "best sellers" to be awful and I have found many unknown authors to be a delightful read.
The early Tarzan books, for example, are in the public domain (you can get them from Project Gutenberg among other places). Burrough's books are much better than the "Me Tarzan, You Jane" of the movies.
Darrel Bain (mostly from Fictionwise) is a very good, but not well known sci-fi author.
Baen books has many of their books available for free download, I'm currently reading
1632 by Eric Flint and it's a very enjoyable read so far.
Finding good books to read for free (or low cost) is pretty easy.
What's hard is saying "I want to get book XXXX in an eBook format" and then try to find it - especially if it's a "best seller".
