Some business execs are foolish. Sometimes they are wrong about what is the best path to profit.
I don't know if there are any who DON'T produce ebooks, but I would not be surprised if there were some who's leaders thought that hamstringing their ebook business in someway to try to bolster their hard back business was the Right Thing to Do.
