Is it a disaster for everyone but Amazon? well to be perfectly honest, I don't think it matters. If the publishers colluded then they've broken the law regardless of their good intentions and deserve to be facing a law suit.
If as some fear Amazon do gain a monopoly out of this and then abuse it, I'll be happy to see action taken against them. Until that time however, Amazon are running a better business than anyone else and should not have that undermined by illegal collusion.
