Hmm find this really interesting, on the one hand
I want a strong book industry with authors being well rewarded and thus encouraged(and I feel tehy deserve to make as good a living as a tv writer or movie star)
Not sure what role the publisher will eventually fill especially in the ebook market as it seems Author-Editor-Agent-Retailer cover all thats needed.
However I am happy to pay $15 for a book I like when its new! However it must then drop in price, for example I would only buy my favourite books at $15 maybe 10 a year, the rest I would not pay over $10 and am happy that to do that I have to say wait 3 months after initial release window.
