Agreed. I think Publishers are just upset because Authors are getting their rights back to their books then publishing themselves. I buy backlist titles all the time.
The only thing I see Amazon hurting is places like Smashwords. Due to their new prime lending program incentive. Alot of books have been pulled from Smashwords for this program forcing you to buy from Amazon. I've also seen several authors jack up the price once they did that to.
