Do you care enough to put in some effort and do something about it, because you can easily do so if you really do care.
The overwhelming majority of the books in the MR library have not been proof-read. What you - or anyone else - can do is to pick a book, go out and buy (or borrow from the library) a reputable printed edition of that book, and proof-read the ebook by comparing it comma by comma, word by word, line by line, against the printed text. Make a list of all the errors, and send them to the person who created the ebook.
It's easy to complain. Let's see if you're serious about doing something about it. If every regular MR member proof-read just one ebook a year, we'd quickly have the best ebook library in the world.
