Pyr Books threw this up on their twitter today and I thought it was pretty interesting. As a primary eReader I get pretty frustrated by all the formatting errors and typos that tend to show up in eBooks.
I'm not sure what the cause might be. I do think it's at least partially because of the conception that hard copies are still more important to a book's success than the eVersion.
Is this still the case? I know I won't even consider a book if it doesn't have an eVersion. For example, I'm a huge fan of R. Scott Bakker's Prince of Nothing series, but have yet to pick up any of his subsequent novels due to lack of ePub.
Where's everyone else on this? Am I the aberration in replacing books almost entirely by an eReader?
