Well, if "big pub" hadn't started messing with the pricing and forced Amazon to change from the wholesale model to the agency model, what price the consumer pays would have absolutely nothing to do with how much money the publishers make. It's been documented many many times that the publishers made more money per book sold under the wholesale model than they did under agency.

They made this mess...now they need to deal with the fallout and stop whining.
