Which in turn, in my humble opinion, has very little to do with what an ebook should get sold for. Profit margins are certainly relevant to pricing strategies, but they've never been nearly as important as "what the market will bear." Clearly, a lot of consumers have not yet bought into the idea that ebooks should be drastically cheaper than their physical counterparts--else they already would be (regardless of who's setting the price).
