Why is it that lots of best-selling prize winning novels (example) are still not available as eBooks?

I think the answer is that the cost of digitizing and proof-reading is high, just as the cost of setting up a modern print run is high. But once you have have done it, the marginal cost (adding servers or printing more) is low.
