I don't really see this happening. Do you really think that all of us who have epub & pdf ebooks are going to rebuy Amazon's versions? I don't think so.

If Amazon wants to be the only game in town, they will have to allow all other formats of ebooks to be bought, downloaded, sideloaded onto Kindles in their original formats.

Unless they are willing to do this, they will never be the only game in town.
