@Tex2002ans...I disagree with most of what you say mainly because you haven't scaled in Amazon's greed factor for profit. Most people know that the Big Five publishers already get special treatment by Amazon which they will happily pay for but the ordinary indie publisher cannot afford. And I hardly think that Amazon would reveal their "special treatment" of the Big Five at conferences. That would create quite a stir wouldn't it, with indie publisher's angrily screaming "Unfair advantage!!". Like me you are just the little man. Live with it, my friend, because you have no other option and no real say concerning Amazon's well-known business tactics.
