I think readers then appreciate that the books are a more polished [and much more organized] way to consume information. I always wonder why people don't get that buying the book and having the info all in one place is such a godsend and a time saver.

I agree with having to give potential buyers information on why your work will do more for them than the free online information and how it will fulfill their hopes and needs. I do this for my NF handbook on believable perilous drug scenes- by offering the reader pre synthesized and realistic scene examples, helping them know how to use that overwhelming wealth of information (and sort through the junk info) to create page-turning scenes.
