Amazon wants to keep its customers happy, but is tired of footing the entire bill to do so.
Sorry, but that is Amazon's problem and no one else's.
And, btw, their "footing the entire bill" just means "less profit per sold book".

Unlike Amazon, the publishers aren't just selling a medium (book), they are selling the content via that medium. Right or wrong, they think that is worth a little bit more than what Amazon thinks should be charged.
