Could you provide any kind of estimate for time/cost of the physical/audio books.
I ask because I am deciding if I should read the ebook or wait for the audio.
My vague impression is that the entire set of audio books will cost about $50 total, and will come out not terribly long after March (or perhaps in late March).
The print books are probably further off. I'd like to see how people react to the eBook, and what uses they put it to, before that project gets properly started.
I hereby precommit to buying at least 250$ worth of print versions.
500$ if there's a posh and fancy edition that looks particularly impressive as a gift.
Because gifts are what I buy most of my paper books for these days, and I love to evangelize.
I will second the idea of having a posh and fancy edition. But this is for myself. I want them to be awesome, perhaps even leather-bound. I will pay as much money as I can get for these.
I also precommit to spending up to double Folio Society prices on Folio Society quality books.
How much of the ebook and p-book price will go to Eliezer/MIRI, and how much is publishing overhead? I'd like to estimate the value of buying copies to give vs. donating.
We make $3.50 for every $5 spent on the Amazon eBook. (The eBook will also be available for free on intelligence.org.) I don't know what the overhead will be like for the print versions.
