You guys sure get the wrong end of the stick when it comes to pricing. It seem like companies go out of their way to gouge you.
Anyway, I agree with you on geo-restrictions and agency pricing. As to eliminating agency, my view is to boycott all books I feel are overpriced. As I've said numerous times in these threads, there is no such thing as a must read for me. If a publisher chooses to price high, then I'll choose to read something else instead.
As to geo-restrictions, I haven't thought much about that one. That'll be a tougher nut to crack.
