Just thought I would weigh in with what I think is an important consideration. For most kinds of books which may only be read once...an e-book might work well...but for a cookbook...consider how it would be used. How many times do you look through a cookbook? I have an enormous collection of cookbooks that I peruse on a frequent basis looking for a new recipe or a favorite one. If I use my computer, it is only to search for a specific recipe which I then must print off and take to the kitchen in order to use it. My computer is not in the kitchen. So...for ease of use...I much prefer a hardbound cookbook that I can keep in my kitchen and use over and over. Others may have different preferences...but I would pay far more for a cookbook I can physically hold in my hands than for an ebook where I have to suffer through advertising I don't want, an e-dress I will probably forget and other issues. I may be old fashioned...but I love cookbooks...if they are real books.

It may be a good idea to offer options in order to accommodate the preferences of different folks.

Hugs,
Bobbie
