The only reason amazon does this is because their third party provider requires it.

Same with book prices. Lots of cheap e-books, and then I see "price set by publisher" and its $29.99.

While you are probably right, as far as ebooks go, Amazon keeps a higher percentage of the ebook price than a lot of their competitors do, so I would not be surprised if some publishers charge more on Amazon to cover the Amazon take.
