My take is simple, if the price is within my range $0-10 (very rarely $11 and change) I'll buy it. If it's more than that and I really, really want to read it I'll check the eBook out of the library. I don't buy paper anymore.

There is more than enough out there in PD and within my range to keep me happily reading for years. If MacMillan and others like them want my business they'll have to deal with the eBook market in an equitable manner. I am not out to short change the authors, I just need to see the individual buyer of eBooks being treated fairly (i.e. Fair pricing and no DRM).
