What a hideous notion. Not only is Amazon not a monopoly in any way, your argument presupposes that all Kindle owners are completely incompetent with regard to computers and Internet usage despite a great deal of evidence to the contrary. What's next? Require them to accept everything submitted through CreateSpace? No rejections for any reason?
I may not agree with Amazon's choices, but I'll support any company's right to make the wrong move. If their decisions are so far off the mark, competition will fill the void and eliminate whatever monopolistic position you feel they hold. Problem solved.
