But as eBook readers become more widely owned, I can see the $14.99 trade paperback going away.
I was figuring by the end of the next generation... When my son (age 7) is a parent, I expect that most reading will be done via ebook readers. When his children are adults, I expect that the paperback will be mostly gone.
