released at the same time
The eARCs mentioned are released two to three months before the hardbacks. And are 2.5 times the eventually price of the ebook: $15 instead of $6.
There are very few books where I would be happy to pay that to get early access. But I'm certainly not offended by the asking price for a product that has as its selling point early access.
But asking $18 for an ebook released at the same time as a $26 hardback that's discounted down to $16 does offend me.
