Duh! That is what agency pricing
means.
If you think something is wrong, you don't change your mind just because someone nice is doing it.
What I don't understand is how people can support this, but not Agency pricing, as it is
exactly the same thing.

If you're stop supporting smashwords and many of the wonderful authors on there simply because of this, you need to rethink your priorities. But I get the feeling that those saying they aren't going to shop there anymore barely did to begin with, and probably get most of their books on the darknet.

Not even going to bother with that.
