Thanks HarryT.
The way he phrased it made it sound like the law was saying only Amazon can have the lowest prices.
Now on that note, I am kind of surprised Amazon price matches when an author purposely puts their book free at another site after agreeing to Amazon's terms.

I do know of one author that Google put her box set free one day. Took Amazon 10 minutes to price match. Took the author 3 days to get it off free.
