Sorry, I wasn't clear. I was thinking about DRM free ebooks presumably at lower than paper prices.
Without the DRM we need a way to encourage people to still buy the ebook. I'm looking for the motivation.

Interesting idea...
However you might have a problem with the formatting as you switch devices, what do you do then?

(See where I'm getting?)

Would be nice to just download the ebook from the bookstore again in another format -- free of charge -- since you already bought it.
