It might lead to the demise of DRM (as I suggest above), but it wouldn't harm Amazon significantly. They'd just unilaterally state that any ebooks sold at Amazon now had to be DRM-free. Publishers would just have to comply, or see a large ( 50%? 70%? 90%?) drop in their ebook sales in the short term.
