i agree. will apple be able to crack this nut? $1 a book? I guess you could then say you 'bought this book for a song".

What if apple invented a new currency, iDollars (i$), that is only for purchasing used digital books. You buy a a book from apple for 10 real dollars. You then sell it back to apple for 9 i$. It is now considered a used digital book. Apple can then resell the used digital book for 10 i$.
