I don't see it as much different from videos:
- The public library has videos for "free" rental
- The local video store has videos for rent
- Nextflix and Blockbuster have subscription services for videos
- Netflix and Blockbuster have eDelivery for video rentals
- And you can BUY videos at both retail and internet based stores
The fact that the public library has videos for "free" did not kill the other video businesses.
Why must this be different from eBooks? The eBook business seems quite primitive in comparison.

Everything about ebooks is quite primitive. Perhaps in a few more years, if the market doesn't flop again, some progress will be made.
