Vodkapundit has some excellent advice for publishers concerning ebooks. And it’s a valid scenario. I am considering the choice today. Buy the used book for $7 + $4 shipping, wait a week and get a hardcopy or buy the Kindle version for $10, get it now and then worry about how to get it out of DRM so I can read it how I want.
I’ll end up getting the Kindle version. I’ll fight it for a day or two, but I’ll get there in the end. But a 35 year old book should be $5. If it was that much cheaper for the ebook, there would be no debate at all. Just so you know.
