Amazon has always taken the long view. Look at the years they opperated at a loss to build their business. Raising prices in a predatory way while it would give them a short term raise in profits would over the long term lose them customers. And Amazon has always been customer-centric.
If the publishers are really so worried about Amazon's dominance they should sell their books without DRM so the people who but ebooks from Amazon aren't locked into Amazon's system forever.
