Because that's the whole point of copyright: to permit the author to have control of who publishes the book, when, and in what format. We don't have to agree with the author's decision (and personally I think that not releasing ebooks is a poor business decision) but we should respect that the choice is the author's to make, regardless of whether or not we agree with it.
