I know that I am behind in this, hadn't paid a lot of attention when it started as I didn't have an ereader. Remember posters on Amazon talking about it, but since it wasn't the Kindle forum it wasn't mentioned a lot.

Anyhow, it makes me wonder if they have been stuck with a lot of DTB (MPB andHB) and so have raised the prices for the ebooks in hopes to get people to buy others. Which is working, doing a search on Amazon I have read where several switched to DTB; this is clearing out the warehouses I am sure.
I have seen at some book stores, mainly at Wal-Mart, where the worker is tearing off the covers of books that are not selling. That is a loss to these publishers. If people won't pay the high price for a ebook, they may feel they will buy the DTB.
Just my theory, conjecture, no proof.
