I suspect Amazon isn't too unhappy with agency pricing. When they began they were willing to lose money on sales to get a good customer base. At the moment they have a huge customer base.
They did protest and fight back against agency pricing but not for long and my guess is that fight had more to do with appearance than anything real.
Of course I'm only guessing at any of this and I hope I'm wrong. I'd love to see an end to agency pricing. But I don't expect it.
