It depends how you buy. If you buy a new release at full price, it's quite expensive. And that's because the volumes are a lot lower than for music and films.

But if you're prepared to wait for special offers, and only occasionally buy full price, you can get ebooks at very reasonable prices. My average purchase price this year is just £1.66. And that's not counting the 10 freebies that I picked up.
