rant - ebooks

I love the Stephanie Plum series by Janet Evanovich. Within a week of a new release, I'm at the bookstore buying it. The seventeenth book is the first new release since I bought my Nook. Imagine my surprise that the ebook is $14. 

I can buy an actual copy of the book that I can lend to my friends for a few dollars more!! GRRR >:(

  • yeah it's ridiculous. they used to all be around 9.99 or cheaper but they are getting pricier and pricier.  You'll notice though a lot of the more expensive books are noted with "price set by publisher."  It's clear that Amazon and B&N are catching a lot of flack for the higher prices and want to make it obvious that its beyond their control.

  • There have been several books that I've gone to buy on my Kindle and discovered that I could buy the actual book cheaper! It's ridiculous.

    This - totally.  I remember Fall of Giants had a 2 star rating on Amazon for *ages* because hundreds of people were pissed that it was more expensive for Kindle than it was for a massive hardcover.  Ridiculous.
