No one would force you to buy it.

Also, I don't agree that Amazon should control everything, and that in order to have a healthy free market you need to have competition, which if Amazon gets its way won't be there, and we as consumers won't have any alternative or choice but Amazon, which would be extremely undesirable.

Controlling all parts of process is not the same as being the ONLY one doing it.
None of stuff discussed here so far would reduce consumer choice. Except possibly the part about other resellers not be able to sell for less than Amazon. Which is ironic, because usually the complaint is from other sellers not wanting Amazon to be able to sell for less than THEM.
