My issue with this is that the ebooks are advertised on Amazon, etc. with the original cover art. This leads the purchaser to believe that the ebook will have the original cover art. This is deceptive.

By the way, Oxford World's Classics does this, too.
Penguin and pretty much every other big pub do this randomly, only on do you get actual cover art.

It's a bit of a pain, but Penguin has a website for book sellers to download nice high rez cover images for many of their books. I usually download it from there and change it myself.
