My opinion concerning ebooks is that they should be distributed for free on the principle of the freedom of information and that anyone who wishes to do so can and should contribute monetarily to those who have "created" said information...
I believe things would be better if all information was available to anyone at all times, but I do not think we can get there until we all understand the consequences of catering to the antiquated business model that is business itself.
