I certainly wouldn't say "a buck for every book", but I do think that $10 is kind of steep for an archived digital file of someone who died ten years ago, especially a DRM-sick one. Lower the backlist prices, take away the DRM so the book is mine for real, and I'd personally pay $4-7 dollars. (This is roughly what I pay when I am not reading free or library loans)
But the quality has to totally rock. There are some books I bought when I first got my Kobo (I now use at T1), of which I have also seen pirated copies. (No I do not approve of piracy) Guess which copy looks and presents better? I'd even pay $10 for a really trendy book - if I could, without question, take it as a given that the quality would be DRM-free and really amazing
