Keep in mind that it's often not a matter of "won't buy from Amazon," but "Amazon won't sell it to me."

Amazon won't sell ebooks to people outside the US, and it won't sell them to people who don't own very specific expensive hardware. Selling your ebook only through Amazon is like selling a physical book only through Wal-Mart--sure, it covers a lot of the market, but many people just can't shop there, aside from any store preferences other people have.

(I did notice that you'd make arrangements for people who want the ebook but can't deal w/Amazon, and thank you. Just wanted to point out that the objections to Amazon aren't all or even mostly based on shopping preferences.)
