Instead of waiting until the paperback is discounted (who gets less of a cut then? the author? the bookstore? the publisher?), I would rather pay a 'fair' ebook price up front in the hopes that everyone is happy.
IMO, a 'fair' price for an ebook is at least 25% less than the paperback. Whether that makes financial sense or not to the parties involved, I have no idea. It just makes sense to me that without an actual printed product, the production cost for my version (ebook) is less expensive to produce, and therefore cheaper to buy.
