Actually, they potentially can generate revenues into the millions each week.
This. Plus, the resale of textbooks. Of course, publishers, booksellers, and authors who sell directly to consumers or who distribute review copies might figure out a means to impose some sort of not-for-resale DRM on books "bought" for $0.00. (And consumers would figure out a way to strip said DRM.)
