If I were an author with Macmillan, I would want a look at the new contract with Amazon. If I understand correctly, Macmillan's will be getting the full price of the ebook and paying Amazon a percentage for their service instead of selling to Amazon and letting Amazon decide how much to charge when they resell it. If this is the case, depending on what the contract is that the author has, they may be able to get their percentage on the full price the ebook sold for instead of what Amazon "bought" it fore.
Not knowing enough about contracts with either party, I don't know if this is relevant. Just something to think about.
