That's if we stick to the realm of an economic model of consumers demand and therefore the producers produce. Ah, but decades of economic theory have come to bare that such a simplistic (neoliberal?) model doesn't work at all.
As far as I know and have experienced, the University of California Press offers their digital books in PDF format only. Other university and academic presses seem to do the same including Routledge and Cambridge University Press. All of these are major university presses.
