First, that really has very little to do with Kindles. Second, if the major publishers had stopped selling on Amazon (a couple did until Amazon gave in) Amazon would have lost their position in the book business.

There's nothing wrong, of course, in blaming anyone you like for anything you like. Why not blame Amazon for high medicine prices. Or maybe they could have prevented Lincoln's assassination if they'd only invented a time machine.
