Why aren't all the 20-30 year old history books converted to ebook format? I bet lots of them are already in an electronic format. OCR would work very well on the older books that aren't already in electronic format.

Copyright. There were a *lot* of good books about politics and economics (and other subjects) written in the 1980s, and many will be lost because the copyright holders aren't interested in digitizing them.
-
Why wouldn't copyright holders be interested in digitizing older books? Too costly? Or some other reason?
-
Cost of digitizing vs profit from what would be very few sales.

Does the book clean your house and pay your rent for a month too? It would want to at that price!
