The economics of e-books

Françoise Benhamou

Chapter 29 in Teaching Cultural Economics, 2020, pp 220-224 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: E-books are complements to and not substitutes for paper books, but the development of a market for e-books can disrupt the publishing industry by changing the value chain and challenging regulations. The future of e-books depends on the ability of traditional publishers and newcomers to implement new business models with prices consistent with the willingness-to-pay of e-consumers.
