I am an Amazon customer. I am a Prime member. Buy ALL kinds of stuff at Amazon. And I buy ebooks from Amazon.

I do NOT agree with Amazon on this issue...never have. I don't ONLY want to have Amazon as an option to buy books. I do not want Amazon to destroy the hardback book options, nor run every physical book retailer out of business.

If a book comes out that I want to read...but at a price I do not wish to buy...then I don't buy the book. I buy another book instead. Or go watch a movie, or play a video game. There are SOO many options. I can wait for the price of the ebook to come down. Or simply never buy it.
