Amazon ebook pricing reflects its dominance in the marketplace -- for an 8-year-old book, the Kindle price is $12 while the paperback is just over $8.

Note: In order to sell Kindle books, publishers are NOT ALLOWED to have lower prices elsewhere.

That should be illegal.

@dangillmor People also need to remember that Amazon doesn't really sell you an ebook; you can't remove it from their ecosystem and sell it or give it away. We should all be moving away from the Amazon and Barnes&Noble models and going to the independents, like @PMPress.
