Why should I, who has paid for the book, do the work of an editor? They are to cheap to pay for a professional service and their customers shall either do it or live with a defective product?
Not in this life!
If it is only one typo here and there I won't say anything, if it is riddled I sent it back and ask for my money as I am not able to read it anyway because it makes me angry.

Exactly. I would only report specific errors in books that are volunteer efforts, like Project Gutenberg or the MR library. Otherwise, no way!
