If your billionaire finds an ebook that he'll pay $1000 for that's fine by me. In fact, I believe that there are already some ebooks that do have an asking price in that sort of range. If I remember rightly they were some kind of very low volume medical research or reference texts. The sort of things where the costs of paying someone to put it all together in the right format can only be set against a very small number of sales.
If cheapness of books are what drives your buying then I'm sure there will continue to be some that cater for you - just like there are cheaper cars, clothes, or whatever. But I don't see why you should expect me or anybody else to be too upset if you want to stick to your own self imposed ceiling. Hey, I'd like to buy a Ferrari for the price of a regular sedan too, but sometimes you just have to save up more or make do with something cheaper.

First of, I don't expect you to be upset - be happy all you want. I am against you saying there is place for
all when you mean for
you.
Second of all let's not be absurd ok? I am not talking medicine books or grimories I am talking NY list bestsellers which are usually closer to Saturns and Geos not Ferrari. And I am not talking about $2 ceiling I am talking about $10, that was set not by me, but by retailer who knows a little more about pricing then you or me. If I had my way it would've been $7.99 ceiling, so I am already compromising
