This would be more convincing if even DP knew how to reliably put their ebooks on
ereaders without degrading them. And then offered to do it.

The sad thing is that many "for pay" "public domain" books on Amazon, and on
other web sites do not even have as "nice a representation" as the epub and
mobi books on the PG site. Some of the "for pay" "public domain" books are
weak OCR efforts which have not even been corrected. Of course, with
Amazon, you can ask for your money back. But it is sad to see others take
the PG volunteers' efforts, degrade them, and then make people to pay for
them.
