That's because clearly you have no concept of what the term means in this specific context.

Basically, it sounds like the cost of everything except content. Bandwidth, database management, customer service, legal fees and so forth.

$75k to manage and distribute library ebooks for the entire state of Kansas really is not that big a cost. It's only big compared to the ridiculously sweet deal Kansas had for the past 5 years.
