This really is a load of dingo's kidneys, as I strongly suspect you're well aware yourself. Amazon are giving independent publishers the option of exclusivity, for 90 days at a time, in exchange for a very attractive deal. Nobody is holding a gun to the head of those publishers and forcing them to sign on the dotted line. There's nothing to stop any other eBook publisher from doing exactly the same thing.
