Excuse my imprecision; I should've said "how many new mass-market paperbacks does $50 get you these days?" Most of what you find in a used book store isn't available in ebook format at any price, at least in my experience of used book stores.

Which is precisely the problem. eBooks destroy the very valuable (particularly in a societal sense) used books market.
