I bought over 100 ebooks at the Fictionwise CyberMonday sale (60% off!) that I never would have bought at all if they had been sold with Agency Model pricing. I'd guess the two companies that got most of my money were eReads and Random House. Guess how many non-free Agency Model pricing books I've bought in the last 3 months? It's been less than a dozen, and they were either discounted or purchased at Sony where I still have credit from the 40% off gift cards from last spring. I have a Nook, and I generally don't buy Agency ebooks from B&N because the publisher prices the ebook 11% higher than the mass market paperback, which B&N discounts.
