I think that your proposed prices are tooooooo hot... few € could be all right for article (if it is 15 pages). Don't forget it is crisis now and people try to reduce their expenses. Also point of the E publishing is to turn part of the hard core printer publication users on your side.

I don't understand your last sentence. I buy a book because I want it. I don't care about electronic formats - at all. And by the way, as a professional editor, I know manuscripts from people who don't know how to write are flooding the market with unreadable junk. I don't care if I can buy junk for 99 cents, it's still junk.

Physical books will be around for a very long time, and you can't sell your copy of German Military Truck Tires, 1939 - 1945 on eBay or a used bookstore.
