I'm not so sure that Hachette's decision is so bad, either. Public complaints by major companies about Amazon abusing its market position will at some point motivate regulators to take a much closer look at Amazon. In my perception it's also more damaging for Amazon's brand, as it shows that they put their squabbles with suppliers ahead of serving their customers.

You are still missing the point. Amazon is not doing anything wrong. Their only crime is apparently being more interested in themselves than their customers and suppliers... which shouldn't come as a shock to anyone... because SURPRISE Hachette does the exact same thing!
No business culture is different, because that would require them to be a charity.
Again, Amazon has done everything by the books, aboveboard and legal. In doing so, they have simply proven to be better at business than the publishers. In what way is that wrong or evil or in any way even remotely objectionable?
