Better PDF version pricing for print-copy owners?
I own (and have registered) plenty of O'Reilly books. Is there any chance you will offer the PDF versions of the books at a incremental price to those that own the print versions? While the PDF version is convenient since I travel, the pricing is harsh given that I've purchased the print copy. Having access to the Safari version for 45 days is not really a viable alternative.

Hello craigjh,
We are currently looking in to better pricing options for our customers. One of the methods we are kicking around is bundling of the PDF and Digital versions together for a lower price.
Here is our first foray in this new offering:

Inappropriate?I'd second the comment. Having a bundle offering is great for new purchases, but I'd appreciate being able to buy just the PDF version of books that I already own at a discount, similar to how the Pragmatic Programmers do it - see here: http://www.pragprog.com/coupon
I've purchased PDFs of nearly all of the PragProg books that I own, because the incremental cost is quite low.
The bundles are great, and I'll definitely take advantage of them for future purchases, but what about my current shelf full of O'Reilly books?
