No way that's true. Humans aren't wired that way. That'd be like saying every human is equally attractive to you.
What, so you have never walked up to a bookshelf and thought, "Hmm, what shall I read now"?

I tend to buy stuff on sale then have a flick through my unread list to pick what to read next, even in series I follow I can quite happily be a number of years behind the latest release with no problems, there is so much I want to read that reading it now is not an issue (Still haven't got around to reading Pratchett's The Long Earth and I've had it for 3 years.

So, I can see no fault with the monkeys reasoning of just picking one of the many books he wants to read based purely on cost.
