O'Reilly and Associates just announced that they're offering a 50% discount on every ebook they sell (or 60% for orders of more than $100). Amazon is competing with a massive ebook sale of their own, offering "up to 80% off" on over 2,000 Kindle ebooks. But O'Reilly and Associates notes that their ebooks are DRM-free, and they're also offering discounts on their videos (which includes cloud syncing and a lifetime of free updates...)

    Technical and academic books do tend to be pricy, they really aren't mass market products.
    There's also the possibility of third world imports - The Bloch Java book lists for $37 on one site; my Chinese edition was 50 CNY (~6$).
