Correct. But my point was that the manufacturing, warehousing, and distribution costs are a far smaller percentage of the total cost of producing a book than most folks seem to think, and eliminating them will not reduce the cost of an ebook as much as many hope.

But the total physical costs have still gone up, and make the initial non-physical costs of editing/proofreading etc a smaller proportion of the cost.

But again, the amount of the increase is a small fraction of the total cost.
