Thanks, i guess im doomed to live in a place were people are willing to pay 3x the price for ebooks.

There was also just passed a book-law in Norway to stop the book selling chains taking advantage of the publishers. the eksample given was:

According to the newspaper Norli Libris took a 74 percent discount - that is, the bookstore chain is left with 74 percent of book costs. The rest of the money goes to the publishers, to cover printing, wages author, distribution, publishing operations and advertising

so now there are rules in place to stop this and this helps guarantee that the author and publisher get a fair share. This is great, but i have a feeling it wont help the book prices going down at all.

terrible google translate regarding the law
