And good old Harper Collins is charging exactly the same price for these e-books as for the real thing.....now, real books involve costs for materials, manufacture, shipping, storage, cut for the bookseller, whereas e-book costs involve, er, sending a string of code down the phone line....
And you have nothing physical to show - nothing to put on your shelf, nothing to sell on (if you want), & its hardly a suitable gift for someone.
Can't see this move doing away with the illegal e-books out there & I can't see them interesting collectors. Maybe of Harper Collins put them out for a couple of quid each I'd be tempted...
