I'm not so sure it's really apathy: more a case that we here at MR are in no sense typical readers. We shouldn't think that our views of book prices are in any way indicative of those out there in the real world. Someone who only buys half a dozen books in a year, and buys it automatically from their reader's bookstore probably isn't going to particularly care what it costs.
