Added to that was the fact that I wanted the e-back more than the hardback (lower weight, greater flexibility, smaller size), and that I could chalk the 'extra' cost (beyond what I consider to be a reasonable e-book price) up to an early reading premium and an encouragement to Tor donation.
The $18 was a bit easier to swallow with those thoughts.
Even after I saw the book in the ConnStore for ~$10 I didn't feel cheated because the copy I had was DRMless, and it's Weber, so I know I will re-read it for years to come.  |
The Sony price is $12.50 and the MobiPocket price is $20.50 from BooksOnBoard. I cannot find a LIT format for this from other vendors.
