I agree that eBooks should be much less expensive than paper books. But I don't see a problem here.

If the eBook is more expensive than the paper book, then it is a gyp, so don't buy it. Buy the paper book. I assume that the paper book is priced fairly.

Go ahead and write to the author and the publisher, and tell them that you did not buy the eBook because you think that it is, at its current price, a gyp. If enough people do that, I think they will get the message.

You are not out anything by buying a fairly priced paper book.

Overpriced gyps happen every day. That there should be some in the eBook industry shouldn't be surprising.
