This is why I have been getting most of the books I am reading from the library. There are a few authors who aren't in my library that I do purchase but basically no I don't buy them unless they are cheap. There are many good authors whose books are below $10 but generally the mass market, top 10 list books are $12.99 and higher. This is not so bad when you buy the physical book because you can lend it and even resell it to a used book store but you can't even lend most ebooks. If they allowed the lending option that would be great. I realize that ebooks never fall apart, but they could limit it to say 3 -5 loans. Amazon has some they limit to one loan.
