That wasn't my experience.
Oreilly I think has done a good job with this and so did Pragmatic Press among a few others. The good ones give you the choice of downloading in several formats to use on your different devices. I think that's a good thing to do. And I try to only support the ones that do that.
My problem with some ebooks right now is the price point. Some publishers insist on maintaining the price of the ebook to be the same as that of the regular book. One would think that removing the printing costs and logistics would bring the cost down substantially.
- Groxx 16y agoThe problem is that such ease of use shouldn't require the small-time publishers to make what are seen as risky moves like that. And that it's tied to the publisher: they go down, they take my ability to retrieve what I paid for with them. Those two are particularly buyer-friendly, and I've purchased a few from them, but they're certainly not the standard.
