Oh, and in both cases:
c. Why are you assuming that it'll only affect the offerings at Amazon?
I'm not assuming anything. You said you do not buy eBooks with DRM. All the books so far affected with a delayed release have DRM. So you are going to be buying them even if they came out at the exact time or even sooner then the hardcover. So why does the delayed release bother you on a product you aren't going to be buying? Why not work towards trying to get DRM eliminated and then worry about delayed released?
