I am wondering if Jack is using the Canadian dollar here? While the Canadian dollar is on par with the yankee dollar (and often more valuable) Canadian's still tend to get screwed on book prices.
Even still, I think Jack's prices do not include enough of the "discount model that many ebook consumers are expecting."
I think publishers need to do much better in discounting ebooks.
