Amazon's desire to preserve its success with physical book sales is why it will not sharply lower Kindle's price, he said.
This seems a bit silly. Back when I bought paper books, I bought from many sources, usually brick and mortar. I bought a fair amount of stuff from Amazon but they only got a small percentage of my book buying dollar. I buy fewer books now (due to the free samples) but pretty much all the books I purchase come from Amazon. I think that's likely true of most Kindle owners. People focus so much on sales of the Kindle because it's the big ticket item in this picture but the 80 or so books I've bought in the last year from them isn't insignificant.
