Wanting to slow it down is possible.

E.g. if you are a selfish bastard CEO who is 65 or something and planning on retiring in a year who wants to see if they can prop up a share price so their shareholder-robbing options package is worth more when they cash out....?
The boss of DC comics said a couple of years ago that he would resist any pressure to go digital so that he could protect the independent comic shops and distribution systems that were in place. I wouldn't be surprised if it was the same sort of reason here.
