Yikes! I'm sure it's not a good idea for a writer to end up in a 75-book contract. Some authors can barely handle a two-book contract. But... 75?!
I visited the Ellora's Cave website for the first time in ages. It needs some work. They were trying to persuade readers to buy directly from their site! Why would they want to do that?
I went there to find out how many ebooks I had in my library. I had three, probably because I use to buy from them in the Dark Ages, before they let you have a "library" or "bookshelf." It took them way to long to realize customers needed and deserved that. By that time, I was buying from Fictionwise, Samhain, Loose Id, etc. (Particularly publishers who recognized the m/m market instead of believing it did not exist.)
And this... On the page where you can download your ebooks, for each book, there is a table with the formats you can download. In the "Software or applications" column, the text says "Install lorem ipsum." Install lorem ipsum?! Good God! Did they put that thing together and forget to update the boilerplate text?
