Professional knowledge of print book making. This is like claiming that because you know how to produce for TV, people making commercial podcasts should be hiring the same amount of staff as TV studio. They are not the same thing, although they can cover the same content.
Tagged PDF's are bulky and CPU intensive and still miss basic options avaliable for other ebook formats. On top of the allready far higher page rendering cost of the PDF format...do explain how you're going to fix
that while you're about it.
Elfwreck - Actually, I was actually thinking about CYOA books last night. There's some very interesting possiblities there.
But the real advantage afaik is non-static formatting. Think about a dynamic website, it has sections of text you can click to reveal, it has pop-up text boxes and so on. All this is perfectly possible, and with a wifi link it's even possible to change these things dynamically - there are paper books which link to ARG's, and you could have an interative ebook linking to an ARG.
