That would be great.. sadly I don't see it happening.

There was a post a while back from someone in the publishing industry who talked about using hardback books as the pre-release premium license version of books. Packaging them with rights for the ebook, audio book, and perhaps other extras. If the publishing industry started treating books the way that the digital entertainment industry treats movies, games, etc. Then I think they could spike their sales, and re-invigorate the idea of a nice book being the perfect gift.
