A few examples don't disprove the point, particularly if also considering back catalogue stuff where the ebook price tends to be much closer to that of the paperback. You get maybe 10-20% discount if you look at the amazon price, rather than 3rd party seller prices that can often be cheaper than the ebook even for books that are listed as new rather than secondhand.
