You're totally right of course. Obviously selling out to Amazon would be more lucrative, if that's what they were after. Not that I blame them - if had started GR, and Amazon slid a scrap of paper across the table, as it were, that had a number with a lot of zeros after it, I'd probably sell out too. It is disappointing though.

I think LibraryThing is partially owned by Amazon or one of its subsidiaries, please correct me if I'm wrong.
