They still get hurt.
Buy Amazon; MacMillan, Harper-Collins and Hachette are the bullies.

Now *IF* this were an expanding economy, I'd probably just cough up the extra dough. But it's NOT!

So MacM, H-C and mini-tomahawk are complaining that Amazon's pricing doesn't 'give them enough money'. So sad, too bad! *I* ain't getting enough money (I'm on a fixed income, but that's not that relevant.) and MY budget is supposed to take a hit for a higher revenue share for a 'discrectionary' expense???

Yeah. MacM, H-C, Mini-Tom, y'all can go stand in the corner, you ain't getting *MY* money!
