B&N won't sell to me so I'm probably not up to speed on all the fantastic incentives and perks they offer indie authors, feel free to enlighten me. Amazon clearly is supporting indie authors, which is the topic of this thread, so I'd say your "what if" scenario above is totally backwards.

Yet you are selling your own book on evil Amazon.
