Yes, I should have been more clear.

What Baen did was to put out e-book X in order to sell p-book Y. The HC person doesn't appear to care about putting out e-book X, though. The intention seems to be to put out sample X in order to sell p-book X. Maybe, just maybe, if enough people beg them, they'll think about putting out an e-book edition.
