Abstract
In analogy with ordinary simplicial volume, we show that integral foliated simplicial volume of oriented closed connected aspherical n-manifolds that admit an open amenable cover of multiplicity at most n is zero. This implies that the fundamental groups of such manifolds have fixed price and are cheap as well as reproves some statements about homology growth.
