I would have thought this would be very good news for publishers. There is a lot more profit in an ebook than there is in a realbook, and there will be a lot fewer readers with each individual ebook sold than there is with a realbook because of DRM restrictions. Even moreso when everything moves towards a cloud-based (hate that expression) sales model where "purchases" are stored on the publisher's servers rather than on the "buyer's" own devices.
