I don't agree with that. If it were an author that I was really into, it would make it more likely that I would buy a Kindle.
Now if exclusive deals started popping up all over the place, one author for this reader another for that one, then I would pause and maybe decide to bypass the whole ebook deal altogether.
On the whole, I don't think the most people will care. Some of the folks on Goodkind's own boards weren't even aware of the issues.
