I am not formally part of a protest, but I find the prices extreme and worthless. I won't pay more than a paper version, if given the same rights.

With DRM etc, the "purchase" is nothing more than a rental, and I refuse to pay more than a rental. If I can rent a movie ($100+ million to make) for $1, then that is what a DRM ebook is worth.

If a publisher/author puts DRM on their books and/or charges an exorbitant price for them, then I won't buy the book in any form. They don't deserve having customers, and the world would be a little better for their failure. No book is worth my morals, I can read good novels from those that appreciate their customers and don't want to treat us like scum to suck money from.
