Agency pricing on ebooks probably harms price windowing a lot as it just makes things stand out as all the more ridiculous when they prevent companies like amazon from reducing the price of ebooks at all and they end up being more expensive than the hardback edition which probably puts people off from buying either edition and in some cases will lead to them pirating the book instead.
I won't set absolute limits on prices I won't go beyond, but for me my limit is simply that I won't pay more for an ebook than the current paper edition whether that is hardback or paperback at that time.
