Answer to rising prices for paid eBooks.
I keep an Excel spreadsheet for my Wish List of eBooks I want to buy. I enter for each the prices for Amazon, B&N and Sony and the number of pages for the pBook.

Then I sort them by Pages / Dollar price. I always buy the most pages I can for the buck. Amazon in 56 out of 57 cases matches or has the lowest price.

In that way the publisher dictating the most pages for the eReader per buck gets my purchase. Since I like all 57 equally only the pages count.
