You often make assumptions of which you cannot be certain that they are true:

1. You assume someone with a full time job has unlimited time and money to spend on writing a book. People who have a day job hardly have unlimited time, and often not unlimited money either. Yeah, if you don't mind spending 20 years on writing that book, but that's hardly practical.
2. You assume everybody can just read text as close as they would like. There are many far-sighted people in this world who will need to keep their reading at a minimum distance, even using glasses.
You assume the books I bought were cheap because they were old conversions. They may be old conversions, but they are still the ones sold today. Except for Kobo Netherlands, these books are *not* cheap. They cost $12.99 / £8.49 everywhere else.

I'll drop it here, because this is not the point of the topic.
