This is an exceedingly good point, and I'd like to thank you for making it. When it comes right down to it, the books are (usually) being made equally available in all formats. I haven't yet run into a time where I wanted a book and it didn't come in the format that I wanted, and even if I did, it's a simple enough process to convert it.

Perhaps in all our format snobbery, we've lost sight of the bigger picture.
