No, we had a discussion at the Romance book club about it last week when Johanna Lindsey's book was released. We've notice this becoming a trend lately with a couple big name publishers. Some thought it was the publishers way of pushing print books by increasing the ebook price. I mean if you can get the paperback for 7.99 or the ebook for 13.99 which you going to go for? Many romance readers are frustrated at this new strategy. They will buy Print over the eBook or wait for a sale. My point is there is too many books out there reasonable price than to pay a high price for a ebook. It's not the libraries fault and punishing them isn't going to solve this problem. They want more sales then they need lower prices.
