Maybe Apple just didn't want to get in the fight Amazon and the book industry have over the 9.99$ price. It's not something the publishers are very fond of; some have even put their eBook releases on hold because of that.
I can hardly imagine Jobs saying: ”Whutt, 10 bucks is way to cheap! Let's make it more expensive for no apparent reason!” Apple fought very long to get the price of music down to .99$ a song and eventually they lost and had to price chart music higher (1.29$).
