Y'know, after all the spluttering by amazon that all Kindle books are supposed to be capped at $9.99, I happened to look at my own books....
A MAGIC OF NIGHTFALL, which until the mass market paperback release next month is still available in print only as a hardcover, has a Kindle price of $14.95. A MAGIC OF TWILIGHT, which has a mass market paperback edition, has a Kindle edition selling for $6.39.
Isn't this exactly what Macmillan was wanting? This would suggest that Penguin (the parent conglomerate to which DAW belongs) has the ability to use flexible pricing. It also suggests that all of amazon's whining about this $9.99 cap for all e-books is a bunch of hot air.
