I feel that if a new book is out in hardcover and is $20 and the ebook is $15 I am ok with that... but when it is in paperback and generally available for $7.50 then the ebook should be $6. In this scenario everybody wins... but I can loan out the paperback and the hardcover so to me, the ebook is worth less.
