I am a little worried about how Apple seem to have happily agreed to publisher's demands. If Amazon are forced to follow suit then that could make kindle books prohibitively expensive here in the UK where the $9.99 books are currently $14.09 ($9.99 for book plus $2 for international wireless plus 17.5% tax).

If the standard book price goes up to $14.99 then the UK price will be around $19.97 which is about £12.50. Far too much for my pocket.
