$9/book is still a lot, especially if you're letting kids annotate and need new copies each year/semester.
Discounting copies just for schools (and maybe public libraries?) misses the point, I think. Mass market paperbacks built the YA market because teens could afford to buy them. (I know it isn't a YA book, technically, but it's widely read by teens.)
