ebook prices WILL be dropping!
How much? About 30%'ish - more or less.
Information you should know!
According to the publisher, ebook prices WILL be going lower and WILL BE ABLE TO BE ALTERED BY THE RETAILER! FINALLY!
Here is yesterday's news:
UPDATE: THIS "JUST IN" IF YOU GO TO THIS LINK: http://dailycheapreads.com/2012/04/12/housekeeping-is-it-just-me/ THERE IS A VIDEO THAT TALKS ABOUT THE BOOK PUBLISHERS FINALLY ALLOWING RETAILERS TO SET THEIR OWN PRICES ON EBOOKS!!! VICTORY!!! HOWEVER, YES, THERE IS A CLAUSE. THIS APPLIES TO ONLY 3 PUBLISHERS AND "ONLY FOR 2 YEARS". THEY ARE:
SIMON and SCHUSTER
HARPER COLLINS
HACHETTE (This is pronounced ha-shet)
YES! The video says that Ebook prices should drop drastically from these three Publishers! For instance, the Steve Jobs book that is $15 right now, should DROP to $9.99!
I'm SURE other Publishers WILL DO THE SAME THING!
So what I was talking and complaining about regarding the ebooks, looks like we will FINALLY get some RELIEF with the ebook prices! YES! Well, at least for two years! Hey, BETTER than NOT!
