Yep. Most publishers won't allow retailers to offer discounts, coupons or the like on the ebooks. You can still use them on paper editions, and often get free shipping as part of the offer. Yet the publishers set ebook prices (at Amazon, for instance) that pay a lower return to them than slightly lower prices would, just to hang on to the paper market. And it's not working any better than copy-protecting music did.
