But the point is that because it is a 40-year-old book, it's very widely available at much, much lower price points for paper copies, and it can be found for free online, so what's the big incentive to buy this spiffy new file? I have it on my shelves in a first-edition hardcover; I'd definitely buy it for my e-reader for $5-$10, but I am balking at the price they're charging.
This is the same issue I'm having with a few other favorite books I would like in digital form--books that are this old or older. They're priced at $13 to $19, and I refuse to pay that for content that I already own or can easily buy cheaply in paper.
