OTOH, I would be very surprised if many publishers go back and edit their older ebooks on a regular basis. I've complained about spelling errors, chunks of paragraphs missing or inserted twice, weird styling -- who starts a chapter with a half line that uses a text size half the size of the rest of the paragraph?, images that use pixel sizing so any screen larger than 600x800 gives mini-images. So far I've found few publishers that actually pay attention and respond.
Hmmmm... interesting the [size=+2] bb code[/size] does not seem to work.

I've seen many eBooks updated and that includes the CSS. The CSS is still full of unused classes. I've used Calibre's editor to compare different versions and where they have not changed the filenames, I've seen errors fixed and sometimes graphics replaced with better compressed versions and/or higher resolution. The problem is that when we buy an eBook from one of the big publishers, we don't get notified that there has been an update. So we don't know and don't go trying to get it.
