I believe it amounts to a bit more than 20%, but fine -- then we all agree that ebooks should be cheaper, at least by 20%.

Moreover, they should be of comparable quality to the printed editions, and should be as easily transferred to future hardware devices. If not, then ebooks should be still cheaper.
