Well, that would explain why authors don't care about eBooks. And it would be a point in favor of the kind of coop publisher I am suggesting, as well. Publishers have gotten used to setting the terms for both authors and readers. They do provide some useful services, as I noted above, but I think it's time to open up that aspect of the business and let the air and light in.
