I support indie books and am glad that the e-book market has made it viable to bring these niche titles back into print. But I can't kid myself that, on the whole, the indies do a better job than the big guys. That is just demonstrably wrong.
I bought a omnibus of Tom Clancy's earlier novels (BPH published). One pf the novels had over a thousand scan and other errors in it, including whole pages that didn't scan properly. And, since this was an omnibus, the ebooks included had been being sold for a while before they were aggregated into the omnibus. The PBH's just don't care about the quality of their ebooks.
