Electronic book publishers are companies that publish books electronically.  In the digital millennium, electronic books are going to become more and more prevalent.  There are a number of factors which make electronic books much much convenient and also much more advantageous when compared to regular books.

Electronic books publishers take a number of risks and benefits when publishing and marketing books electronically.  They benefit from the fact that there is no delivery cost.  The cost for producing the book is minimal compared to the costs that a regular publisher would take in production.  There are no materials such as paper or ink that need to be purchased.  There is no labor cost for moving the books.  There is no trucking fee for delivery of the books to stores.  Finally there is no bookstore fee for shelving the books.  All of those fees are eliminated.

Another benefit of these books is that they are instantly transferable.  If there needs to be a new upgrade or a new edition made, the books can be instantly upgraded, there is no delay on waiting for an upgrade.

Electronic books publishers still have to pay authors royalties, intellectual property fees, and other fees.  Often times they can afford to pay their authors much higher percentages than their offline counterparts.  This is because they have no overhead and they don't have to pay for facilities in the same way that their counterparts do.  However, they should still have to pay for editing, writing, copywriting, illustrating, and other similar editing processes.  They do have to pay for the author's royalties.  Often times an agent is not involved with electronic books publishing, so that cost is also eliminated from the equation.

There are a number of problems which may arise from electronic books publishing.  Firstly, most of the sales of books are still offline.  That means that most people are still not accustomed or comfortable with the idea of buying books and reading them on their computer.  There will always be a segment of the population that prefers to have physical books instead of digital books.

Also, copyright infringement is rampant on the internet.  Almost immediately after a new book is released, copyright infringement goes on a rampage and there are often many versions leaked all over the net.  Enforcing and policing these illegal versions is nearly impossible, and there is certainly going to be lost profits from these enterprises.
