Doesn't a publisher like Penguin make money for every book borrowed from a library? (not Amazon's Prime one, but just your typical library).
I fail to understand the business model that Penguin is running on, one where Kindle Books cost more than DTB's and one where they pull books from libraries to get at Amazon for lending books. It seems childish, and given the connectedness of EBook users, it wouldn't surprise me if they get some backlash via Facebook or Twitter because of it.
