Yeah, I understand. I didn't want to say too much earlier, but I'd like to rant a bit:

I hate what B&N did to Fictionwise, just like I hate what Amazon did to Mobipocket. I also hate what Agency 5 did. Random House, with their geographic restrictions--just like the rest--are no better. I refuse to buy anything from these companies--but that doesn't mean I won't acquire their books through other means. I guess that's just my way of fighting corporate greed and stupidity.

However, I pledge to pay a fair price to independent publishers who are doing it right. I have no problem whatsoever buying books from companies that are being honorable to both the customers and the authors--and are still able to make a profit for themselves as well.
