He claims that it's not about dissatisfaction with Simon & Schuster and he will continue to publish other books through them. He claims this Amazon ebook move is a bit of an 'experiment'.

I want to see a major author like Stephen King tell his publisher to go jump and sell epub ebooks direct to public. A few major authors expressing dissatisfaction with the way publishers are handling things might get some change happening. The combined pressure of authors + consumers might get international licenses for ePub ebooks.

Some prominent musical artists like Radiohead/NiN sold albums direct to public and did very well out of it. I think authors could do the same and make a killing.
