At best the enhancements aren't worth more than $1 to me -- and not really even that -- as long as they are DRM laden.

rhadin, e-books can be shared quite easily between a group of friends if they have e-readers. In my circle of friends and family there are now 4 (soon to be 5) with e-readers. We can each buy the e-boks we want, read them and then physically swap the device. It becomes no different from swapping print books.
Harry, perhaps penguin should make it very clear on there site just what the enhancements are. I am not sure that I would pay the extra for this, but I can understand that many would.
