Oh, certainly. I think as a rule, no one can see paying more for an ebook than the paperback edition.

My point was simply that some books by nature are more expensive and will carry a higher price, and the reasons for that will be true whether they are paper or electronic volumes.

I've seen a lot of what I can only call wishful thinking about how cheap an ebook can be, and still actually cover its costs and make money for the publisher.
