Are there people sitting home alone in their overstuffed recliners sad that they can not afford a book to read?

Have you heard of anyone unable to read books because of the cost?
I can't comment on what "people have said", but lower prices will allow people to buy more of the ebooks they read.

Right now people in overstuffed recliners have options like free public domain ebooks, library borrows, used paperbacks, and the darknet. At a lower price point, some of those will be forsaken for the convenience of shiny new ebooks.
