I have no doubt that the screwy pricing of ebooks needs to be dealt with, but I can't see where punishing authors by not buying their books helps anyone. The publisher is just going to look and say, "Author A's numbers are down, don't buy another book from him/her."
Personally, I'd think a blogging campaign would do more good.
(And, usually, the ebook royalty rate is separate from the p-book royalty rate, both negotiated separately.)
