Let me put it another way:

Before ebooks became reality, I did not care one whit about the production costs of "books." Not even a teensy bit. So why would I suddenly start caring now? It's not a factor in my valuation of the experience. Why should I expect a significant drop in price for an experience that has remained the same for me as a reader (in fact, there's much I value more about ebooks)?

For contextual purposes, I will also note that I don't care if someone else got a better deal than me on the same car. I know it's not exactly a tit-for-tat analogy, so please don't bother pointing out all of the ways buying a car is different. I'm just using it to help explain my mindset. Which is; given that I'm comfortable with the price I paid for something, I really don't care if there were ways the producers of said something could have sold it to me for less had they wanted to. My valuation of luxury expenses does not factor in costs of production. It's not relevant.
