I agree completely; that's why I think it's so important to support the few publishers, such as Baen, who are doing "the right thing" and publishing books in open formats at sensible prices. I'd encourage anyone who likes SF and Fantasy to support Baen by buying their monthly subscription service, which gets you between about 4 and 7 books for US$15. I may occasionally moan about some of the wierd stuff Baen publish, but there's no doubt at all that they are an example to the rest of the publishing world when it comes to what they are doing with e-books.
