Hi!

Outstanding contribution! I myself think more people should do this type of arithmetic’s.
It’s clear that eBooks are cheaper in all the flow of the book industry, and to know that it’s cheaper too for the normal consumer - even with today devices prices - is a really important step.

People still think they are paying too much just for reading eBooks… it’s not so! - I have stated several times that my Cybook has paid itself more then once in just 8 months of use, in direct costs and “indirect” incomes.

Thanks for sharing.
