- DrScump 7y agoThat's a digital only rate and only for a limited audience. The textbook prices complained about in the op-ed are all for printed copies. Apples to apples.
- danso 7y agoYes, the "limited audience" is for students, the audience in question. The value of a textbook, or a newspaper, is not the paper. Are you under the impression that a rented textbook, and/or a digital version of it, is trivially cheap?
