Don't rule out publishers so quickly. Publishers provide editors, illustrators, layout designers, aid in distribution, etc. They help turn an amateurish product into a professional one. Sure, the bookbinder and the shippers (UPS/FedEx) are no longer needed, but almost everyone in the pbook production pipeline has an analogue in the ebook pipeline. I would hate to see the professional aspects of pbook publishing be eliminated. Don't replace my New York Times with the Weekly World News.
