I think authors, publishers etc. would lower prices considerably if they could see a chance of making it a success.

All the above are available and in use but generally by unknown authors or mavericks.
Gotta give them a viable alternative and a reason to switch that is in their interests as well as ours or we sound a tad like self centered babies saying gimme because I want you to.
Thanks for your reply.

What I'm saying is, what value do publishers bring to the table that we would not have without them? Before electronic books they were great facilitators and very necessary to get a book from an author to a reader. But what are they good for now (as far as ebooks are concerned)?
