I think this can be compared with the MP3 music files and readers. Some 10 years ago you could convert music files into mp3 files, about 9 years ago the first mp3 readers started to appear in the market (I had a "creative" with 600 M which was really fantastic at the time), and now everyone has an ipod or similar.
I subscribed to a website "Weblisten", for a flat rate of 13.000 Pesetas/month (apr. 80 $) where you could download all the music you wanted, they paid the corresponding authors fees so this was legal and they had a fantastic database.
Probably it's just a matter of time before the same thing happens with the ereaders and ebook files, although I'm aware that we (we= people hooked on reading) are a minority compared to people who listen to music.
