Canadian e-book Pricing 2014

I stumbled across this presentation looking for an old Kobo presentation that Michael Tamblyn did. (it had been removed )

http://www.slideshare.net/eBOUNDCana...k-pricing-2014

It has some very interesting data on price points, pricing paid by format and library pricing. I found slide 14 odd because it looks like the average price paid includes $0 ebooks and they included a table to show what it actually is when you exclude them.

It also has some general statistics I didn't know. 28% of publishers are using agency and 49% are using direct pricing models.

Has anyone heard about the "Quebec Model" for library ebooks where they buy from book stores at market price but then lend it 55 times? This is the first I've seen it referenced.
