I want to re-read the whole series. My hardback copies have already been read more than once, and I want to keep them in good condition. Plus, my ereader weighs much less than one of those hardback books! I was traveling in Chicago when the last book was released. Of course, I
had to buy it and start reading right away, and it was not that much fun traveling home through the airports with such a big book. I much prefer to read ebooks.

I agree. Why can't they open a separate storefront or go through existing bookstores? It's pretty simple. People want multiple formats. You need at least MOBI and EPUB. I really don't care what kind of DRM they use as long as it's compatible with my ereaders. I took the survey anyway.

Losing my patience, sure. But, we've already waited years at this point and not too long ago the stance was no ebooks ever... I'll still buy them however long it takes because I won't be able to resist them!
