Just to chime in with a little more strength than an invisible upvote, this is one of those things that doesn't sound to annoying until you're experiencing it yourself.

I used to read reviews complaining about it and think "stop whining" to myself, but now that I'm ready books that I paid for and which clearly went straight through OCR software with no human supervision... Really, really frustrating.

These are examples of OCR errors I've seen on ebooks I've paid for


So more argument against publishers adding value.
