The problem is that her "art" is a business. A big one. The two are interlinked and inseparable. She wasn't talking about art and art's place. She was criticizing aspects of the business/industry that allows her to support herself with her art. Why? Because she's not just about the art. She just wants it to sound like she is.
I don't want anyone to "deprive" themselves of her (or any author). I'm just tired of hearing childish cries of; "Literature is going to die because Amazon!" It's fearmongering, and it's silly.
