How? DRM prevents that.

adjustable fonts, adjustable line spacing and margins, instant delivery, mutiple books on one device, built in dictionary...
These are all benefits a print book doesn't have. I would imagine for most e-book users, at least a couple of those benefits are what prompted them to use e-books in the first place.
It's not subjective, those benefits are a fact, a tangible aspect of digital books.

How many actually use those things?
I click on an ebook and read it. In some instance I change the font size, but perhaps that is not my fault ... most are fine without doing that.
It's all very well to provide such features, but they are not a benefit if not used, and it is more to do with the device than ebook itself.
I think they should charge more for physical books, because one day our nanny robots will read to us, and won't that be a fabulous benefit.
