Using Drupal 6 and theming on AcquiaProsper.

I have a website that sells cookbooks. These cookbooks are hardcover and no problems configuring everything to work ... up and running. BUT now the client would like to give the user options, something like maybe checkbox to include the selection for the downloading the product in eReader File (like Kindle) or a PDF rather than the hardcopy.

I want to contain all of these to a group for each cookbook allowing the buyer to select one or all of the three and quantity for each type. I.e.,

Cancun Cookbook:
ckbx Type Price Ea. Quan
______________________________________
_X_ Hardcover $9.00ea __3__
___ Kindle $2.00ea _____
_X_ PDF $1.50 __1__

Is there a best way to achieve this via the 'create product' such that all items appear together on the typical grid?
Is there a module for handling this?

I know this could be crafted by building a custom module and some CSS work, but has anyone found best/fastest way to do this?

Re: Download products - Hardcover book, PDF, or eReader

The simplest way would be to simply add an attribute type to the product class with the three options. Attach the different prices to the attribute options.

Sure, you'd only be able to buy one thing at a time, but since they're different products, really, maybe that would be ok...and it wouldn't require any coding.

If you really want them to be able to select any combination of them, make seven options: A, B, C, A + B, A + C, B + C, and A + B + C.
