You (and other ebookers) keep making pronouncements like this regarding pricing and profitability in the publishing industry. I'm wondering -- aside from your opinion on the matter -- what factual bases you have to support these statements that are given as if they are fact. How do you know, for example, (a) what it really costs to produce an ebook and (b) that publishers want ebooks prices high enough to "maintain the paper book market"?
