I agree... publisher resistance is the only thing that has held e-books back. Their resistance has led to ridiculously high prices, DRM, non-supported devices and formats, advising major authors not to publish e-formats, and writing contracts making it a financial burden on the authors to e-publish.
But despite the resistance of the industry itself, e-books are still growing and developing. That's not a flop, that's a rags-to-riches success story in the making. The little guy that Big Business just can't keep down. The Cinderella story. Which is why that article just wasn't well thought out in the first place (unless it was just written for controversy's sake).
