It's... frustrating because eBooks is obvious solution for when books are not quite popular enough to keep printing indefinitely. When they're unavailable it just pushes people toward acquiring them illegally. |
This shows an advantage (for an established author) to self publishing their back catalog. While in theory ebooks should be a 'set it and forget it' thing that need never go OOP, there s still contracts with publishers that expire in time.
