Of course changes to my buying patterns are all just anecdotal evidence, but if I am not the only one who has changed his purchasing habits then the publishers truly are shooting themselves in the foot.
And thinking about it I would have to say I have been doing much the same! Small DRM free publishing houses are getting my business and I am actually buying more non-fiction P-books when I see a good price (a sale etc). The only reason I haven't bought a lot more second-hand books is because I am running out of library space!
