I don't buy of the Agency books anymore. I've found a lot of indie publishers I wouldn't have looked at before and have been quite enjoying myself.

I think they were missing the point that Ebooks were bring many people back to reading and book buying, as well as bringing in new people who weren't reading their books before for whatever reason. The comments about devaluing books is a dumb one.. I rather sell 50 books at 5 bucks then 20 at 10..

And yes Steve knew about the Agency model..and the publishers all set around talking about how the low prices devalued books. There was a video on them discussing it last year that was posted somewhere.

But hey, its America.. if your a corporation, you can get away with anything.
