Thank you all for the replies, I put some of my thoughts just to keep the thread going.
Good:
1. collaboration between publishers to have a bigger catalog of available titles and a better distribution.
2. make their own devices and sell them at reasonable prices as part of the ebook experience (Amazon).
3. offer free books if the authors agree to do so and perhaps add a chapter of other books of the same author.
Bad:
1. bad search engines for the catalogs and too simple subdivision of the subjects.
2. lack of interoperability and/or agreed standard.
3. tedious drm systems, that often force the buyer to remove them "illegally".
