I like the others question the sensibility of pricing based on the Hardback price.
The Hardback price is justified in paper due to the extra printing costs etc in doing a hardback book compared to a paperback.
However in e-book form there is no difference in the product between the e-book released at Hardback or Paperback release dates.
So how do they justify the price?
Are you paying the premium to have the book released earlier?
Do they think releasing the e-book at paperback prices would destroy the hardback market?
Should e-book releases be timed with the paperback release instead of the hardback and priced accordingly?
At the moment the prices are too high to justify the market. look at the ipod and how cheap downloadable songs are compared to the CD single.
