That's a silly notion. Amazon doesn't have to let potential clients know competition exists. Nor is Goodkind a mewling baby incapable of research. The competition in this case could have approached him. What Amazon did is fair and this example doesn't support the notion that Amazon is a monopoly.
Goodkind's decision is unfortunate and unpopular with the general ebook community but to cite it as an example of Amazon being a monopoly is outrageous.
And not about TOR. What thread are we in?
