Actually I don't want anyone to be shafted. I'm stating what's more likely to happen. The indie folks I mentioned who are tooting for Amazon, (I Really don't care who wins. I mentioned before it's a corporate battle that has neither the best interests of the consumer or the authors at the forefront.) are doing so because if Amazon wins than they feel it's a win for lower-priced ebooks, which they believe is fair to the READERS. The big pub might drop to 4.99 on a new release. I don't ever see them permanently dropping to where the majority of the indies play: at 2.99 and 99 cents.)
