What makes me especially angry is that for years they claimed that the paper, printing, storage and transportation was what made books so expensive. And now, when those things aren’t a factor anymore, books get even more expensive?!

plus you're paying for a service that can be switched off and the device can be turned into a plastic brick, when the provider decides you should buy new one. it's a joke.

these comments are so strange to me, an ebook shouldn’t cost the same as a physical book it’s illogical

It’s expensive, especially considering you only purchase the license to read it. Ebooks aren’t actually property of the reader.

15 Bucks is a paperback which can be passed on to your kids, your neighbourgs, or anyone that wants to read it.

Girl same. In my country 15 dollars is a hard cover. I'm not paying that for a file.

They said „digital distribution will be cheaper because there is no cost of paper, printing, transportation etc.”. Well, I’m not paying too 🏴☠️

anything more than 3€ for an ebook is a mockery in clients face.

I won't pay more than £5 for an ebook and that's only if it's cheaper than the paperback

Especially as this price on Amazon is only for reading access, but not owning the file. So they can take it off the site and you lose access forever even if you spent that much money on it

And on top of that, it’s 15$ for something you don’t own! It’s 15$ for the right to read it so long as the book is available. Wtf? 🏴☠️books it is, then.

Ebook prices are my new personal nemesis… how is it possible I pay 10€ for the paperback copy but 15€ for the ebook - which only gets me the license to read it anyway? Nope. I might not have an endless shelf but I’d rather make that work somehow than pay 15€ for an ebook🥲
