This brings to mind Tipping Point, which goes into detail about the mechanisms for starting and sustaining a trend. There are specific actions that take place to tip a product over the hump and result in mass popularity. New adopters have eReaders and they want digital books, they are also the ones that drive trends. Passing up these people by windowing ebooks is terrible sales strategy if the goal is a bestseller.
