Yup.
OTOH, I think I've given more money to publishers and authors since going to ebooks.
Yes, I've bought much more than my share of pbook, but probably 90% of them used. That money might be supporting the trading site, and the local UBS's and FOL's, but really very little money went from me to the author.
Even with all the freebies, now more of my money is going to the writer. Which I think is a very good thing.
