This outline article is a little bit whitewashed and it hopes, of course, to sell you the report. But I think I like Steve Outing's summary from E-Media Tidbits: "I was enthused by the idea of e-books a while back. The technology holds promise, but the industry hasn't captured the public's interest. But the technology isn't the problem — its the paranoia about piracy of book content by the publishing industry that's killing e-books before they get off the ground. A new survey of e-book device users helps to explain the sorry state of affairs with e-books."
