According to that email:

1. To see a boost to the reading culture, thereby increasing your indie value and market along with the BPH's.
2. To show solidarity against using authors as pawns in the dispute, which would, ostensibly, be remembered by Amazon if a KDP/indie dispute ever comes up.

Regardless of whether you think they are right, or have ulterior motives, I thought they were pretty clear on what they thought was in it for you and why you should want it.
