So what it is is a lose lose situation that the publishers are causing with insane pricing.

I am getting a bit sick and tired of having to email the eBook shops to tell them the prices are out of proportion with the current pBook edition.
From another point of view:

There are so many wonderful books by out of copyright authors that are free.

And, don't forget.........you can download and read your library books.
