Even if it costs money to format the ebook, it's a ONE time cost. Then you sell foeervr. Printing has a cost every time.If I were an indie, I'd be glad traditionally published ebooks cost so much. Not sure how that fits in. Just saying.As for some guarantee of quality, you know that Snookie's book is being traditionally published, right, and that Anthroplogy of an American Girl was originally self published and was so good that an imprint of Random House picked it up?Also, there was that little James Frey incident (traditionally published) that was, well, you know, not true. The guarantee there was so good that people got there money back. But not their time, of course.
