As has been widely noted already by various parties; dissected, discussed, and digested: Motoko Rich at The New York Times has provided a convenient chart regarding e-book costs and publisher profit. She points out that a publisher can make as much profit for an e-book sale as they would for a hardcover, but with a much smaller investment. Sounds like someone has been reading The Wooden Spoon!
I'm not saying I scooped the New York Times. I'm just saying that I reported this model long before they did, and Merriam Webster might say it was a scoop. Don't blame me. It's Merriam Webster they should be worried about.
