I don't know if this is Fictionwise's fault, because at least one of them is $14 elsewhere. Still, I don't believe a word MacMillan's CEO says in this matter, since it's clear that their ebook pricing often is more expensive than mass market paperback. I don't believe they ever would have announced this if Amazon hadn't put the screws to them over the weekend.
but how is looking at the prices available NOW relevant, they have said they need to change their ebook pricing and have said it will start from March.

now if they don't do what they said then fair point.
