Maybe someone could price their book at $1,000 and get KU readers just out of curiosity lol!
I agree that the lower prices might keep some readers away. And so many authors offer the first in a series for free so it's become the "norm" to 1. expect it or 2. wait for it to go free at some point. I'm an Amazon associate and when I do a post about a book that is "regularly" $7.99 on sale for $1.99 I get a LOT more clicks and usually more buys than if a book is $2.99 to .99 cents. Free trumps everything in clicks (although I don't track downloads or use my associate code with free because we are only allowed so many free downloads against our code. If we have too many Amazon confiscates all of our earnings for the month).
