Lets be fair here. This is really just Oracles gentle way of saying

"We dont want to be in the Document Printing/Distribution business, Use the Freaken CD-Rom we sent you and learn how to startup oracle book!"

Ok maybe its not that gentle and I dont really agree with the way thier handling it, But I dont think they are planning to MAKE a ton of money selling documentation. Instead they hope to SAVE a ton of money by giving us soft copy docs instead of hard copy.
