Well, isn't it obvious? The ebook costs are much higher, after all they must store the book in a warehouse, retrieve and pack the book, pay to get the book delivered, and pay HMRC their VAT cut (£1.33).

Hmm... you know, I suspect that the other costs might just about match the VAT costs. I guess they're just losing money on the 40% off they're doing on the paper version. [yeah, right!]
