Because publishers are trying to make money and some readers are willing to pay as much for a digital book as a physical book.

Wait a while and the price of an ebook will usually go below the price of a new physical copy.

The cost of physically printing a book is a small percentage of its price to begin with, and this is usually reflected in a small difference in price. Most of the costs are the same – paying the author and everyone involved in the publishing process.
