rlauzon: I see in your utopian plans a call for more and larger government that will settle on one and only one form of eBook for everyone so that they can enforce the copyright protections-restrictions-payments that propose. This is having once central authority deciding what is best for us. They (as all government agencies) will extend their power to allow only the books they agree with.

The open market where new ideas are free to fail and where each person selects what is best for him or her is a far better model than the one you propose. I just see too much "1984" in your plans.
