That is problem number 1 of e-books: I would guess that well over half of my personal library is so obscure that it will never make it to e-book format, regardless of copyright restrictions

That's unlikely for anything written in the PC era. There is not a significant cost involved in converting a book to e-book format, as books are composed in electronic form to begin with.

How long does your average book publisher cares about maintaining those electronic forms ? How long does the median publisher exists ?

I wonder why the various National Libraries aren't asking for those electronic forms to find their way to their hard disks...
