I was not trying to address the overall pricing for ebooks versus pbooks.

But just the question of why would the OP think that a book that is currently in print, at a current pbook pricing, would be availble as an ebook for a substantially reduced price?

If it is a book that has not been in print for say 20 years, and is brought out in ebooks only, I can see the ebooks being priced well below current ebooks pricing. But the book in question IS in print and seems to be selling in pbook form for standard pbook price. So the ebook price would likely be set at current ebook pricing.
