And if that happens, I am not sure what the net effect would be. I think it is fair to say that it is a double-edged sword.
Sure. But I think that early eBook sales are no more likely to make a publisher wealthy than "darknet" (a term I've never to date heard or seen outside these forums) copies are likely to ruin him.

Ultimately, for better or worse, I rather think most any publisher can afford to be apathetic toward both of these things without fearing grave consequences.
