I like how pandits of high ebook prices manipulate true facts to cover other true facts. Zigfrid and Roy can take a lesson.
Oh, don't you worry about saving on paper, shipping costs and such it's not major cost.
A. Even if it's true for first print books, what about second etc prints. When I will have ability to buy Tolkien electronically, what am I paying for? Certainly not for editorial work or marketing. It has been done decades ago and has been recovered aplenty. Or R. Heilein - You still paying advances to dead author?- really? It's print cost - plain and simple, will I see e-book prices reflecting this? I don't think so.
Funny the other day I looked at who Mark Twaine called "pirates" - it was publishers. He felt, they are the ones ripping authors.
B. There are cost savings small or large - I want to see them in the price tag.
Sad part, that publishers lies are lapped greedily by too many otherwise intelligent people.
