Now, to be fair, I am willing to believe the hold up was all from OverDrive rather than Fictionwise. But if this is what happens when a book has a problem - who wants to pay for encrypted ebooks? They already suffer from stupid DRM related problems that paper books do not. They have no resale value. They cannot be lent to friends and family. And, apparently, when the distributor screws up a transaction, they cannot be replaced.

Can you image going into a bookstore with a book whose pages were bound upside down or out of order, and having the bookstore tell you to come back in a month or two and they might replace it?
