Apple's failure in the ebook business has nothing to do with pricing and everything to do with access: when the only people who can even *look at the catalog* are those who've bought a $500 device, the market is too small to be sustainable. Sony at least puts their storefront online; you can't buy without their program (not, notably, their device), but you can see what they have.
