MobiPocket licenses their books to lots of outlets and they don't want to undercut their own clients. It is a tough spot for them so always look other places for better pricing.
MobiPocket may be the reason that Bookeen cannot license another DRM system as well. (I think this is likely based on your comment on Sony) It is only someones conjecture that Palm refused to talk and now everybody seems to jump on the wagon and take it as gospel. This is a forum, many "facts" should be taken with a grain of salt.
