And who thinks that?
It is not about a better deal, it is about a fair price.
You are totally mixed up over this.
Clearly you have plenty of money to throw away, to say the things you do. I don't say that to be insulting, but to state an obvious conclusion.
Most people wisely consider where their pennies go.
The digital age we live in promises that digital variants of things will naturally be cheaper. For some reason, many publishers think they are exempt and make up all sorts of excuses and play all sorts of games. It is nothing but a cash grab on their part or an attempt at some kind of niche market.
Many of us realize there is likely corruption going on. That stockpiled physical books sold as rare items at disgusting high prices, is reputedly part of what is or was happening. That and many more things. We are only guessing that of course, but it seems pretty conclusive when you have an overall picture of things. Ebooks mess with that paradigm big time.
