Further thinking
Why did the company stop selling the encyclopaedia
as books
Because searching for information online is very convenient(方便) and it costs only a little money or even nothing.
More opinions:
1. The online encyclopaedia can be updated(更新) all the time.
2. Other people feel sad because they think the relationship they have with the books are very special and more important than the information they need.

Interaction促读
Is it worthy(值得的) to pay so much money for two volumes of Yongle Dadian Why
Further thinking
Two volumes of Yongle Dadian were sold for more than $9 million at auction(拍卖) Tuesday, more than 1,000 times the estimated price(估价).
Yes. Because it is really valuable and rare(罕见的). It remained the world's largest known general encyclopaedia until 2007. It helps preserve (保存)the knowledge and culture of ancient China.
