So you're right that it's not worth the same but the differences go in both directions and which is worth more depends on which features you value more.
I beg to differ slightly here. An ebook is just a digital file. It is the ereader device itself that provides for the syncing across devices, that is generally smaller and lighter than a physical book. So that being the case, I don't get that when I buy the ebook. If a reader doesn't support those features, then I don't have it. As such, I don't add that to a feature of an ebook.

I see now that this has been addressed further up the thread
