Well, until it reaches the point where the author isn't getting enough from the transactions to pay their own bills.
Although I can see micropayments for many kinds of information, I suspect that books will always be considered art, and as such, will command higher prices than other products. Full-length novels may never become objects of micropayment due to that reality--unless a patronage system or advertising support is standardized, paying the artist's way and making income from their books supplementary only.
