I was being serious about my price point. Not because I expect he'll lower the price, but just to give my data point to take into consideration with whatever other feedback he's getting. If it were $12.50, I'd buy it. That's on the high end of what I like to pay for eBooks, but I respect what the author's doing, and I want to be a better senior engineer. To me, that's a reasonable price to pay with the preconceived notion that I'll probably have to dig through the book for the gems that really resonate with me. Maybe it's my background in econ, but I often approach things with my valuation in mind.
- markbernard 13y agoI agree totally here. You cannot price an e-book the same as a textbook. Plus e-books give you a much wider audience so lowering the price is not necessarily a bad thing. Check out Joe Konrath's blog. He is a fiction author but much of what he says cover the span of e-book publishing.
