How
much on average does an eBook Edition cost?
Please keep in mind that the publisher sets the price of the eBook
Edition depending on their pricing policy. Additionally, every publisher looks at the eBook world
differently. Some publishers set the price equal to that of the paper
book, while others price it lower. Some times special deals for free books or large discounts are arranged through the publishers. Look for these specials on our website and in the biweekly eNewsletter.

Why
are eBook Editions so expensive? Will the prices of eBook Editions
be going down?
We are convinced that over time a pricing model will be established
that passes on the advantages of electronic publishing to consumers.
Currently, publishers are actively testing lower prices and eventually
a market equilibrium will be found.
