Seems like a pretty reasonable price, but:
No two people have the same attitudes on how to read ebooks (or emanga, or ecomics, etc). Some will only use a portable e-ink reader. Some will be happy with scrolling around a single page on a tiny low-resolution iphone screen. Some will want to display full colour high resolution images of two pages side-by-side on a large widescreen monitor. Some may rotate their monitor to see a single page several times 'life size'. There are applications to do all these things, often several that operate in different ways with different interfaces, across a huge range of devices and operating systems. If a file has DRM, 99% of these options disappear, and you end up with a lot of dissatisfied customers or worse, very few customers at all. |

Personally, I'd like to see some sort of Print On Demand system via preorders for people that want to support him via physical volumes, but this is a start. I'll support him. It's always hard being the first guy to do something new, especially in Japan.
