You do understand that those increased prices are the publishers' doing, not Amazon, right?
And that by buying print instead of digital you are doing exactly what they want, right? Because their thesis is you will buy their books no matter what they do to you. That they can use you to fight their silly war against Amazon and ebooks and Indies. Because they want to go back to the old days, when they could raise prices over and over (even breaking the law to do so) and everybody had to take it because there was no alternative.
It's not going to happen, of course.
But in the meantime, by trying they *are* messing up the finances and lives and careers of the authors they are supposed to be promoting.
