All very true guys, and I agree with you about the freebies, and low cost authors, but my point remains valid - Publishers cannot justify the prices they 'impose' on ebooks.
I too use my public library right up to the hilt - one or even two books a week. It seems to me that lending through ebooks is a way forward - great for holidays - but my library hasn't even thought about ebook lending.
If the publishers are not careful I can see like minded folk getting together and scanning the latest best sellars and passing them around to each other. - or even scanning the borrowed library books. The publishers seem to have the BT syndrome - head in the sand - until the the market slipped away from them and they've never caught up
