I'm reminded of the satellite radio war of three years ago. Sirius offered expensive radios and an inexpensive subscription. XM offered lower-priced radios and a higher-priced subscription. Eventually Sirius switched to the XM model.

So it's very possible that we will see inexpensive eBook readers with more expensive eBooks.
