Agreed. Their reasoning is SO ROOTED IN THE PAST don't you think. Why should the hardback be the "premier?" that just an artifact -- even today many books are only released in paperback or trade-paperback. And there is the cost differential there has got to be more money to be made in digital distribution than paper. I guess it's that the e-market is not there yet as far as the old-timers are concerned.
