YES. Ebooks are a great idea, but definitely not in the way currently implemented. I hate the idea that XYZ Corp., can start streaming ads into my books or have detailed analytics of which lines I read/skipped/copied/researched just because I bought it from them. It's really convenient: they control the format, hence they control the software to (legally) read it, hence that software can behave pretty much any way it likes! It's even further horrible when you consider a future when books will only be available in one format, that too by XYZ Megacorp ONLY. I don't want the world I inhabit waltzing into that future. Thank GNU that GNU exists.
