Not railing. Or trying to be argumentative. I just think that until something changes, the value/price equation is not likely to make ebooks take off. Whoever "they" are, until they decide to lower prices either because the market drives them to do it, or they do it as a calculated loss leader, ebooks will not flourish. Noone, or at least not enough to support a large market, is going to buy an ebook for more than a nice hardcover edition, especially those who read more "literary" titles.
