After all, there are thousands and thousands of books yet to appreciated and read on Project Gutenberg. Put your money where you mouth is and do something about it.
I don't understand what Amazon has to do with publisher-set prices for ebooks. Either Amazon is setting the prices or the publishers are. According to Amazon, the prices are "set by the publishers", so how on earth is boycotting Amazon going to change anything?
