No problem in the world with you (or anyone) valuing ebooks less than other other formats. My problem is with you (and others) believing your POV is a universally held norm.

My question to you is why you don't just spend your money on the formats you value more, rather than wishing the formats you value less would sell for a price you're willing to pay for them? You do realize that if you prefer ebooks over pbooks, that your preference translates directly to added value, right?
