No, not that either. Amazon is a major player in market but not the only one, and they will not maintain their position if people can't get the books they want there.

For reference, see this thread above.

But you are doing a swell job of mimicking Hachette's spin doctors.
Yep, it was a loss, not less.

Dominate does not mean that Amazon is the only ebook seller, it means that Amazon holds the biggest market share by a large margin. The latest figures that I saw for ebooks in the US is 65%, with Apple and B&N getting most of the rest.

Ah yes, nothing like a gratuitous putdown to make one feel better about one's self. I find that insults and cheap rhetorical tricks are where one goes when the facts are against them.
