I'm saying that hardbacks are important, as are trade paperbacks, as are mass market paperbacks. They all make money at different stages of the life of a book.
The original poster is saying (repeatedly) that if you don't buy first run full price hardbacks then the publishers don't care about you. He is saying that only hardbacks matter. That is what I am disagreeing with.

I read all this in the context of the initial price that are set on a book. Because it is the initial price that people are mostly complaining on. It is not the price after one year we are discussing here.
