anyone here actually read ebooks?

i run a lit mag and i'm trying to determine if it's worth the significant extra effort to put epub & kindle out there.

they barely sell. i do much better with the print editions. i'm just not sure if the audience is small but loyal, or if digital feels like a bonus addon that people take but never actually read.

please give me your insights!!! i need perspective outside my own. :)

boost too, if you'd be so kind.

@pixelpaperyarn (tl;dr I've run an ebook publishing company for years and love the format + availability of ebooks)

I've bought and published ebooks for years -- for me it's all about cost, especially in the academic world. I can publish an ebook for $3-4, when to sell one in print form would be at *least* $10 through something like Amazon's print-on-demand, without much revenue back to me at all after Amazon's cut.
