| Sumario: | The article discusses the royalties imposed on electronic books in the U.S. Random House chief executive officer (CEO) Gail Rebuck proposed a royalty of 15% of net receipts on digital sales. Producing e-books still has many of the costs associated with print publishing such as advances, editorial, sales, marketing, promotion and publicity.
