Answer to Question 2

Hard cover versus paperback is used as a price discrimination scheme. Paperback versions usually come many months after the hard cover version. Customers who really like a particular author are more demand inelastic and tend to be impatient for the next book. This way the publishers can extract a higher price from the inelastic customers before they charge a lower price to the more elastic segment of demand.
