Works for me. But, at least initially, I think that may mean higher prices. It seems that Amazon has been willing to take a loss on many ebooks at $9.99 in order to build their ebook/Kindle market. If they were just selling Mobipocket (and other formats) to everyone, would they continue that strategy?
