How Long Will Discounts Last?
Amazon may be offering discounts now, but will they last? One of my reader blogs has already reported that Amazon is discontinuing the discount for books originally sold as mass market paperbacks (i.e. genre fiction like romance, mystery, etc.) These books make up a big part of the reading market, even though they're not as prestigious as other books. I expect that discounts will start to disappear on other types of books as well, except perhaps for a few bestsellers.
