In a year's time the book will be discounted and they'll pick up the sales from those who'll only pay mass-market rates. This is the way publishing and many other forms of retail have worked for
decades and is blindingly simple.
A high price for a big new bestseller is
not the problem. The problem with ebook pricing is that publishers and retailers still need to get their act together to ensure that the ebook price comes down in parallel with the physical price as the book moves into discounted selling windows.
