The Big 6 are cutting their own throats. If they keep it up, libraries will turn more and more to indies; and those authors are just as good as the majors.
Almost all my favourite authors are published by one of these (surprise, surprise). So maybe I'll have to explore some new authors as well.

But I won't be tempted by all those "Vegetarian cooking for Linux programmers" and "How to get your child to sleep in 10 easy steps" (it doesn't work) books.
