That predator is not Amazon per se though.
It is free lance editing businesses and digital distribution, which is allowing authors to retain copyrights. Amazon is the 800 lb gorilla from a digital distribution angle, but taking amazon out would just let the other players grow.

It's hard to be a slide rule manufacturer when everyone caries a computer.
