I've taken the position that the publishing industry would be in a much better position to adapt to e-books if they hadn't consolidated. A bunch of smaller publishing houses could experiment with different models and the best would win. The consolidation has just allowed the BPH to think they can rig the market and force the consumers to buy under their terms. That just makes an unhealthy marketplace. I'm sure there will eventually be a market correction and it won't be favorable to the companies that are rigging the market or the authors that are in bed with them.
