what is even more interesting is that books are also much cheaper e.g. Algorithms by Cormen, et. al. cost only 6$. It would be interesting how eBooks are priced in India, as compared to US.
these are generally titles meant for countries in the indian sub-continent e.g. india, pakistan, bangladesh etc. usually, paper quality, printing quality etc. takes a nose-dive. for example, i have a sedgewick book with almost translucent pages, which makes it next to impossible to read anything...
