If you look at the app store, there is room for free apps, for quality apps around the 99 cent price point and niche apps/ big names up at the $10 mark. I think a similar thing will happen in the ebook market, personally depending on the book I'm more than happy to pay at the $10-$12 price point which I guess is at the top of the market.

I'm not the fastest reader and I don't devote more than probably an hour a day on average to long form reading so one book can keep me going for some time, I'm sure others that power through books in a day would feel differently about the high price point.

The way "also bought by" on amazon plays out actually helps with this price segmentation. The people on a writer forum I follow noticed that (unsurprisingly) kindle bestsellers tend to have other kindle bestsellers in their also bought list, while other books mostly have books in the same price range (2.99s having other 2.99s, .99s having other .99s, etc) as part of their their also bought lists.

Be curious to see if that continues to play out, however.

I would be interested in this writers forum, and saw no contact information in your profile to ask :)
