About prices, our printed books [law books] cost something about U$0,10 per page.
And in our digital library, U$0,05 per page. I think the price of our e-books would be something like this. What do you think?

so a 200 page book would cost around 10$. that seems reasonable. but the problem is, how will you count the pages ? in reflowable ebooks, especially if you change the font size, "page" is a very relative concept... i think it's best to decide on a price for the book which is not related to the length. bear in mind, most people agree that ebooks should be priced *less* than the cheapest paper edition (like pocket paperback). baen books sells their ebooks around 6$ and people seem to agree this is a good price for an ebook. if you price too high, people won't buy ; price low, and they won't hesitate, and you will sell more. since the cost of each unit to reproduce is nil for an ebook, this means more revenue for you.
