Pick a date and execute.
I will NOT pay $20 for a book I can buy in the store for $15 or less...that's absolutely insane. I WILL rip the publishers off as much as I can, through boycotts or otherwise, and prove the CONSUMER rules the world - NOT the vendor. Its time businesses in ALL industries remember this fact - the CUSTOMER is always right...ALWAYS! Price-gouging is wrong/illegal - so are monopolies, which is exactly what they publishers have just created...

I agree - I will not buy any e-books (I only buy e-books) unless the price is under $10.00. I have a long list of books to read that are available for free at my library, so I will wait them out.
If everyone did this, then the prices would drop.
