The real problem here is that unlike all the other digital items, Amazon has been forced by fear of those lawsuits to not "sell" any books by any of the big 5 publishers or their subsidiaries. When the movie and TV industry is more open with their terms, you know something is wrong with the publishing industry.
I'm sure that the fact that Amazon wants to steer customers to the products that Amazon has a higher profit margin has absolutely nothing to do with it. No siree Bob, it's those evil publishers at it again!
