No, they are not the same. E-book are much better. They take no space, you can search them, you can comment in the book and let your friends see the comment and so on.

I find it very strange that people have a strong opinion about what the price should be based on the value to them. I do not understand why people think so strongly that the ebook should be cheaper.

I also do not understand why the ebook market is so different from the paper book market. What is the difference that makes it impossible to use the model with selling books at a higher price in the beginning and later lowering the price?
