I'm the kind of person who buys a book if the price is right and if I feel it is something I'd like to read someday. It often takes me years to get to such books. If the price is high, though, I won't buy just for my TBR pile. I remember reading somewhere that a big chunk of books sold don't get read, that they are bought by people who like to shop more than they like to read. Raise the price high enough, and you lose those sales. I think this is a different effect than just drifting away from reading in general.
