With iTunes a single song might be $0.99 but a complete album is $9.99, it has to be kept in mind because there is no physical media for a single to compare with.

I believe the balance point for the popularity of ebooks will be around 30% of the paper book value. And I'd wish a higher margin for the authors compared to paper.
