Sure, I've got many of those old hard-covers too, but some of those are an artwork in their own right (the embossing and printing stamped into the covers).
And I'm not putting on the sackcloth yet. You noted earlier that you see it mostly with older books, and I think you may be right. Perhaps this cover switching thing is a problem that will fade away.
