I thought that that might be the case. But I was talking about conspiracy theories, and I have a good imagination. I was just saying that Amazon might decide to use the extra money that comes out of not reducing the price of ebooks to develop a new DRM, maybe a more expensive one, one that would justify a higher price for ebooks.
I envision the evil mastermind hiding in the shadows looking at a screen that shows the increase in profits while being in a conference call with the publishers. And then he would say: "Gentlemen, it’s time to begin phase two".
