See, you don't even know. Your "rule" applies to which books? Do you have any example that will show that it follows your rule? You know what I think? A successful book will generate a lot more money from mass market than hard cover. It is in the name already, as it is not only mass produced, but also for the masses.
There is book lovers that love the physical object, and there is book worms that just love to read. Book lovers will have a library full of first edition hard covers on display, while book worms will have tons and tons of boxes crammed full of paperbacks.
