Ah, I am the bad guy now in your twisted logic? For "pirating" a book I already own, just so I can have a lighter bag and travel with my books and read them in my ereader? The books I own? Great logic. What publishing house to you work at? Do you think all people are morons? That you are going to force them to quadruple buy the same book? What happens if a newer reader comes out or a better ebook format, you AGAIN force the people to buy the same book in another format...much like the recording industry...

Btw, yes the vice versa part was innacurate, in that I am forced to buy the printed book out of my love for reading and books without them giving me the ebook too, and I am allowing myself to be taken advantage of thus.
