The key word in what I said is _some_ books. Not all, not most, but some. The first book I noticed this on is Tamora Pierces' Circle of Magic #1: Sandry's Book ( a youth book for those not familiar with Ms Pierce's books). When I was reading it in Marvin, I noticed a number of what looked like bad scanning errors, yet when I happened to look at it in the Kindle app, those errors went away. I assume that there was some specific letter combination that either the DRM removal or Calibre conversion process didn't handle well. No idea what. My only real point is that it's pretty easy to jump at a conclusion and blame the publisher when it's not the author or publisher's fault.
I rarely notice scanning issues in the vast majority of ebooks that I read. For one reason, most of the ebooks aren't scanned, but rather come from the electronic copy. Another reason is that it takes a pretty major error for me to notice it.
