There's nothing "efficient" about a paper book. It forces us to cut down forests, it consumes huge amounts of energy to be produced, shipped and stored, it takes up valuable space, it rots, and it eventually gets landfilled, adding to our carbon load. And each copy costs the same as the last to produce.

The only reason it's "cheap" is that the costs of the environmental damage and cleanup are put into your taxes, not added to the cost of the book.
