Thing is, though, they hurt themselves (and their authors) by limiting the distribution to Amazon only. Other publishers do it too, Hachette being another one of the worst. If those ebooks had already been available at several other outlets, this wouldn't have had near the impact. They brought it on themselves. What caused a big part of the hue and cry amongst ebook consumers was that the books were not available anywhere at all after the Amazon shenanigans.
