Just a minor point of clarification - Macmillan will be setting retail prices for ebooks only, right? They are still running the traditional pbook model: hardcover with high cover price, volume discounts to retailers who sell at a lower price, and sometimes get rid of stuff at clearance prices. Then paperback, etc.

Is this correct? They are dealing with Amazon using two distinct business models simultaneously?
