Of course it should, and vice versa. They're interrelated. Some won't read digital and some won't read paper, but many are fluid in their preference and price is a factor.

The eBook should be priced fairly

"Fairly" is neither useful nor accurate in the context of pricing, with the exception of subsistence goods. Leaving out natural monopolies, sellers are free to price as they will and buyers are free to buy or not. In fact, I'd argue that publisher prices are more fair than they've ever been, given the low barriers to entry for digital books.

or at least allow the stores to discount like to do with the pBook.

Yeah, I agree with this.
