I'm waiting for the price to lower and so far not a one has dropped.
And thus, it's true. The publishers could not succeed in getting YOU to buy an ebook at the current price. You have chosen to spend your money on the competition (whether it be books from other publishers, library books, used books, books you've already bought but hadn't got around to reading, rereading books you had already bought).

There was no "for you" at the end of my "TOO HIGH". There is vast amount of competition for your time and money such that no publisher can possibly succeed by putting too high of a price on their books.
