Yes, it's pretty stupid of the Big 6 but, as mentioned in the article, this could be a huge opportunity for independent publishers--and e-books, too. I like short-sighted corporate stupidity like this as it'll end their stranglehold all the sooner.

And, please, by all means, keep MR users informed which publishers are supporting these midlist authors. That's a company I can get behind.
