not on a per unit basis

Bit per unitbis not as important as the big picture...and if print sells big, they will keep selling.

If you subscribe, WotC knows where you live and will send ninjas if you unsibscribe and delete everything from every storage you own, of course. What do you think?

I unsubscribed during the OGL debacle and I'm still here.

pretty sure I agreed to all of this already before. What I was discussing with @occam was profit per unit though

In this example, there's no doubt that the digital product has a lower COGS. If you express profit margin as a ratio of gross profit to revenue (retail price), the digital product has a much higher margin: 83% vs. 42%.

But the profit margin measured in dollars for both products is the same: $25.

mamba said:
you mentioend $25 as the amount WotC gets for the book and said the digital margin is higher, I used these in my example to show that the $ per digital is higher than the $ per print book

I tried.

by using different numbers from your initial ones…

Look, I understand that the $ can be higher for print depending on what four numbers you use, but given the numbers you initially used it could not… and that is what I said.

That this is impossible for one set of values does not mean it is impossible for all sets of values, you are not telling anyone anything new here

Linux is developed by professionals that are being paid by companies, not some bunch of hackers in their spare time

Lines of code changed by company
Oracle 12.0%
AMD 11.7%
Google 7.4%
Intel 5.8%

no, they predominantly are not, 2.8% of changes were under 'None' for company

Man, just think - if it wasn't for IP laws, we would have never got the wheel!
