The more people who have access to a given eBook and can buy it, the more profit the publisher will make. That's why it's ass backwards to do an exclusive deal with Amazon. Sorry to the author, but you deserve to be screwed over (pirated) like you are screwing over others for making this bad deal.

J.A. Konrath is screwing over fans big time. The latest book in the Jack Daniels series is only available via amazon and that's I think 4 months before the pBook comes out. So to fans who don't read Mobipocket and do not convert, they are screwed. That's just one example.
