So to summarise: prices for some books have gone up a couple of dollars, but major publishers like Harper Collins are now running promotions where they give their books away for free.

Are readers 'revolting' against the idea of free books?

Good work on using one book where Hachette got the pricing wrong to suggest some nonsensical conspiracy and ignoring all the others where it's moving to get it right (M. C. Beaton's 'Death of a Macho Man' - PB $6.99, Kindle $6.99 etc, etc).
