I agree. I've been a member since a few days after getting the iLiad. The multi format books work very well downloaded as a .pdf, and on DRM's books, prices are typical below the current edition at the bookstore once you consider the discounts. A typical paperback edition in the US is now around $8. If you are a member at a chain bookstore you can get a discount to around $7.20. At Fictionwise, without a special sale, the same book for a member would be $5.50 - $6 most of the time, and they run author & other special sales that allow you to reduce this further.

Today they just announced and book released in the last 3 months that was above $10 is at $9.99 - normal member discounts probably apply. Sounds like the Kindle factor is working in our favor.
