I made it clear I was boycotting the Price-Fix Five entirely back in April.
So far, I've held to it. I've bought zero books, p- or e- from them.
So far, no shortage of new material.
I have gone back to some old favorites that are new(ish) to ebook form.
And I still have the TBR list to hit...

Oh, and I don't expect the publishers' war on consumers to last more than a year or so; it'll be clear soon enough they are leaving money on the table and the shareholders will have something to say.
