I agree with "vega07" on several points made.

I would never pay more than half the price of a paper book. An as most of the paper books I buy are under £3, many under £2 I honestly don't think I will be buying many e-books for my, yet to arrive, Kindle. I have downloaded many free books to load onto it when it arrives.

I have seen several books on Amazon (UK) for just over £1 from little known authors and have downloaded and read samples of these and a few I intend to purchase.

I am one of those people who have never bought an MP3, paid to watched "pay to view" TV, I don't subscribe to satallite TV and seldom go to the cinema. I prefer to buy the CD or DVD/Blu Ray, but even then I have a cut of point of how much I will pay for it.
