Ok fair enough. I didn't mean to put words in your mouth :)
I consider the music, movie and now literature based problem to be basically the same issue regarding digital distribution. Any problem that was present with music will be a problem with the others. I wouldn't be surprised to see iTunes selling books in the future.
If Scribd can provide some pressure to make content less expensive or give people more options, I think that's as good as Amazon's mp3 store was towards making iTunes DRM free.
