You are not alone.
And it's not unusual; you have simply internalized the new paradigm.
(And yes; it *is* the publisher's problem--ebook reader owners have lower tolerance for pbooks, especially big and heavy pbooks.)
Think back about other forms of content. Your attitudes have changed there, too, right?
In my case, for example, I rarely watch live TV; there is no appointment TV for me. I DVR everything and watch it later. Maybe the next day, maybe the next month when I can run through four episodes back-to-back-to-back...
Commercial free.
And lately, some shows I don't even DVR; I catch them on HULU or NETFLIX.
The whole angst about missing the show is gone. There are simply too many ways to catch the good stuff and *miss* the bad stuff.
