I do: e-books are a new market, with different pricing (hopefully lower), easier distribution and purchasing, and a different infrastructure for support. Publishers should be looking at a very different set of sales figures compared to print, and adjusting royalties to reflect that reality.

Of course, that means a royalty structure that pays the author more when they have more sales, as opposed to the publisher pocketing the difference...
