Whatever. I am glad to see the 50 titles at Kobo, esp everything that's under $5. It's not really clear to me why some of the titles are as low as $1.99 or 99¢. If they are worth $3, they are worth $4 or $5 ... why charge less?
That does sound goofy. The US prices are $.99, $1.99, $2.99, $4.99, and $7.99. I would guess that they reduce prices on those that aren't selling as well and/or on authors that they feel might not be as well known to get people to try them.
