I think it's more about seeing value for their money, not specifically the price itself. Right now, many publishers are ripping people off with their eBook prices, and consumers know it. When they see eBooks for $15, they're not necessarily mad because they can't afford $15, they're mad because they can buy the same book in paperback for half that. Current pricing make eBooks look like a scam, rather than a serious attempt at a business model.
