Good No-Shouting

Following yesterday's post, I see that Amazon's Kindle price of Paul Harding's "Tinkers" has been reduced to exactly that of the paperback print version, $8.22.  Perhaps this model makes sense:  pay a single price and pick your format, instant delivery and a mere text file, or an actual battery-resistant book.

(I kind of like the idea of buying the print version and getting an e-copy for no-additional cost; I've already paid for the book, now it's a matter of how I choose to read it.  But that's a different pipe dream.)

More likely the pricing difference was nonsensical and this was the simplest way to resolve it.  In any case, no one called my a lying buffoon so this has been a winning situation for me.
