This doesn't say anything about the actual e-books themselves, which are frequently terrible. Not only that, they're often priced at parity with the physical books, which takes some real gall.
I really do mean they're terrible, publishers would never release the print equivalent of the crap they put in e-books. Terrible typesetting, breaking important parts of books, no ability to handle things like accented characters, it's embarrassing stuff. Or, it should be, but publishers are so focused on not being subsumed by the onslaught of technology that it seems to be a low priority.
