Well, you can't blame them for feeling sorry, since they haven't figured out how to get on the e-book bandwagon, and they're going to lose business because of it. But it's especially a shame that they didn't try asking you how they could win your business back, or maybe learn more about e-books to see if there was a way they could get in on the market. Sad.
