E-Book Sales Slip, and Print Is Far from Dead

One word: price. E-book prices have soared! Almost everything on Amazon is over $10 these days.

They're often going for more than the paperback price, and certainly more than the prices you'd find at a discount bookseller.

I imagine the ebook is the one both providing greater value, and having a harder time competing for production resources -- while paper may be overcapacity now.

Clearly the ebook is not providing greater value if demand is slack compared to paper books..
