This isn't the only reason the band wagon is filling up, krisk. There is also:

the abandonment of the previous ebook customers;

the blackmailing of the POD publishers;

the bogus DMCA takedown notice;

and now the capricious account closures. I didn't care much about the one case; it was the many, many case last fall that bothered me. The vast number of closures last fall show that this is SOP for Amazon. How could this behavior not bother you?
