It isn't fair play when an author forgets there are people who do not buy eBooks from Amazon. It isn't fair play when people with a Kindle think it's OK for Amazon to try to take over the world. It isn't fair play to their customers when Amazon shoves an obsolete format at them. And it isn't fair play when Amazon stifles creativity.
Fair? You were fine and happy when Overdrive was only providing books to libraries in ePub or pdf....now you're unhappy when you're excluded and call it "unfair"?
And about Amazon taking over the world, just wear your aluminum foil hat and I'm sure you'll be okay. I can't decide if your rant is more sad or laughable.... but it is definitely hypocritical.
