I've been using Audible, off & on, for several years. It's cost effective, if you pay attention. I've gotten some fine audiobooks at good prices, compared to buying CDs of the books.
I see no reason that something similar wouldn't work for ebooks. The pricepoints might be different than for abooks, but it seems to me that many of the problems consumers have with DRM could be avoided.
It also strikes me as a pretty good way for publishers to get out from under the thumb of Amazon et. al.
How about if the subscription were our old friend, $9.99?
