e-books on a whole are getting more popular, the kindle is always out of stock at amazon
other publishers are embracing the e-book format due to cost savings
1000 people buy store version- retailer cut- printer cut- author cut-publisher gets rest
1000 people buy the E-book version--author cut--publisher cut (if bought from the publisher's e-book store)= more profit for publisher. cutting out the retailer and the printer reduces the cost of "printing" a book by over half..thus they can (if they choose, some choose not too) sell the e-books for less money than the "normal" version
one thing i AM going to do with My ds is get an R4 and get ALL of my e-books on the card (i have well over 250 ebooks) for when i travel...
