no doubt some people(The majority of casual readers?) will be happy to pay that small premium of say $15 to $30 dollars a year.

The problem with this theory is that are there really that many people who don't already have an account with Amazon? If you already have an account with Amazon how much effort does it take to download an app and start buying cheaper books? Don't underestimate the effort some people will put into saving a couple of bucks. How many people have you known that will describe with great glee that they drove miles out of their way to save a couple of cents a gallon on gas?
