Excellent article, Randolph. Thanks. What folks must realise is that when it comes to serious indie authors and small publishers, the cost-savings in print, warehousing, physical distribution and shelf-stacking are only part of the ebook story. Editorial, design, technical, legal and admin costs are constant and must be shared between the treebook and ebook. I won't touch a free ebook or something selling at a dollar or two because the very price suggests that the author has cut corners, there has been no professional editorial input, and the book may very well waste my precious recreational reading time.
