Either way, Amazon isn't trying to kill digital sales. If anyone is it is the publishers who have been trying to prop up paper sales by increasing the prices of e-books. That has been a main talking point from the indie side for the last few years.
Both STAR TREK and S&S are owned by CBS so odds of a legal Star Trek book from another publisher is vanishingly low.
