Well, this thread was about e-harlequin and they really do not sell ebooks for $15. Their ebooks are cheaper than the pbooks. For a Dutch copy of one of their Intrige books I pay 3.15 euros, an e version in English is $3.99 which is actually cheaper. Will I buy the p versions now? Nope, will buy the cheaper ebooks...

I really do understand you problems with DRM, heck, I didn't write that mobi utility for nothing, but not every thread is about DRM and how expensive they are. If I want to have an ebook and it's above $8 I'll pass and I'll wait...
