I agree with this completely. The authors should be paid a fixed wholesale price, and the retailer should be able to sell it for whatever price they want, even at a loss if they want.

Ultimately though, the consumer sets the price. If it is overpriced, don't purchase it. Once the price becomes reasonable, purchase. This sets the the actual value of the product...
