I think it's the price for eBooks. A good example is Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas: Kindle - $15 Paperback (new) - $10 Paperback (used) - $6 Paperback (library) - Free The Kindle version is a significant premium and I don't think there is a matching convenience factor. It's unfortunate that is the case because I'm sure it'd be a lot more eco-friendly and efficient to distribute ebooks.

That is interesting to me I haven't actually read anything that can be considered a modern best seller on my Kindle, so the books that I generally order are cheaper to get the Kindle version. That being said I do agree with your point if I had to pay more for the Kindle version I would immediately buy the physical book.

I don't know how common this is, but some libraries[1] allow people to check out ebooks (including Kindle ones). I do most of my reading on my Kindle, and it has almost all been free because of it. [1]: https://nypl.overdrive.com/ https://nypl.overdrive.com/
