Lear This, Please

Dear eBook Producers:

Mechanized extraction of text from existing assets, which I have no doubt you’re using (in fact, you’d be fools not to), is a start to the process.

It is not the entire process, at least not if you want to retain customers.

On more than one occassion, books that I’ve purchased for my Kindle have had errors in them that, while rooted in OCR or transcription, ultimately represent a failure of quality control. Errors that would never be tolerated in physical books, and that make it clear that no person actually read the book on the device it was targeted toward before it was hustled into the market.

Which brings me to the exhibit above. How can I have any confidence in your product when nobody even caught the typo in the subtitle of the book?
