The second is goodereader, and he appears to regurgitate some of the times article stats, which is handy as the times article is behind a paywall:

I find the Times article particularly risible as the Times is published by one of the corporations that lobbied for the removal of VAT, which was always intended solely for the benefit of publishers. Bad Amazon!

So I take it back. I don't know that Amazon have increased their prices or not. Saying that, just the brief survey of prices between ebook.com and amazon.co.uk was eye opening. I thought Amazon kept their prices low. Apparently not.
Thanks for the article

Problem with brief surveys is you can get them to give you any answer you want

I have just had a look at the top 5 bestsellers on Amazon
Non of them are on eBooks and they are all priced at £3.29 which looks like they have had the reduction
