The publisher notes that "based on our previous experience people were checking out the digital book but still buying the print version."

That’s what O’Relly found
Back in 2000, O’Reilly and Associates published
“Using Samba”, a computer book I wrote much of.
At the same time that made it available electronically, in short easy-to-print sections.
I wondered if this was smart, but indeed, the
readers referred to the on-line version, but
bought the professionally printed version. It
was one of their besy-selling titles that year.
I’m glad to see this is true of novels, too.
