You are aware you're talking about the publishers who release ebooks with metadata indicating the title is "0689865384_INT" or "Microsoft Word - Sc_Sc_SpareParts.rtf" (that's a PDF; the title was apparently grabbed from the original during conversion) or "mill_9780345519399_2p_all_r1.qxp:8p insert template," right?

They've yet to really acknowledge that their books are being read on computers, much less that screen sizes are different from print book sizes.
