USA Today: Real Books can defeat Amazon and ebooks

Quote:
The book business response has been to protest hotly and try to wage a moral war against what it sees as an immoral competitor — having, for instance, its writers sign petitions and ads. To its credit, few believed usually inefficient publishers could ever mount such an impassioned defense. But if the adage about not being able to win at the negotiating table what you can't win on the battlefield is correct, book publishers don't have much of a chance against Amazon's dominance. In fact, their efforts to fight what they perceive as the Amazon monopoly have only succeeded in getting publishers charged with antitrust practices in their combined effort to have Apple help bail them out.
Yup. Real books.
That's the key to besting ol' Devil Bezos.

Have at it, folks.
