But the publisher is offering the same ebook title for $6.99 at its own site, (http://us.penguingroup.com/) where I just bought an epub copy.

I'd still like to know more about whats going on. Is this a war? If so, who are the contenders? What is the battlefield? the objectives? What are the strategies & tactics? Who's winning?

What does it mean for the buyer of ebooks?
Apple's iBooks store lists it for $18.99. Penguin's deal on their own site sounds great!
