Good one.
Reminds me of this:
In a 2012 presentation, Mr. Johnson, then still Penney's CEO, said the company was selling fewer than one out of every 500 items at full price.

No one said they are evil.*
Do they treat their employees as well as Google, Costco, and Overstock.com?
No.
Do I often want to read the books they publish?
Taste vary, but not me personally.
Do I think their having a big market share is good for literature?
Nope. Too much risk they will use their market power to squeeze the publishers who release most of the books I like reading.
Are they evil?
No.
