There is no logical reason for it. Charge whatever price you want for the digital things people are never going to be allowed to own and be done with it.

Digital library programs are a joke. Why make 30 people wait for two "copies" of a digital thing when it can be multiplied more than the money the public library paid to have two "copies"?

Ridiculous.

Because price isn't dictated by cost of production. Price is dictated by supply vs. demand. Only communist systems dictate to producers how much of their product they must produce, and those systems always fail.

One could argue that the cost of production has an inverse correlation to supply.

Likewise demand has an inverse correlation to cost.

How does this concept apply to an already made product that can be copied infinitely at relatively no cost to the individuals that produced it?

Generally, but a producer can choose to make as few or many as he likes. He can make 1 or 1 million. His choice.

Because there's nothing to do about somebody not making as many copies of their product as you wish they'd make.

There isn't any making to it.
