The "price-fixing" that is occurring (just like gas-stations in my opinion) is more worthy of stress and attention.

I am bummed that I lost alot of my wishlist, I had books on there that I was planning on buying or was interested in and at 4 pages long I know I am not going to remember them all, I would also put books that were going to be released later on my wish list.

Why am I annoyed about the loss of my wishlist? Well if I had known it was going away I actually would have made some last minute purchases of books that I planned to buy in the next month.

As for merchandise changing, they are online books. Digital copies, its not like they take up alot of physical space. Even if a book is not selling well they can leave it available without it taking away from space.

As for price fixing? I agree, but I think this is going to backfire on the publishers in the long run. Maybe 20% of the book buyers are the ones that support the company long term, people like me who read 200+ books a year.

They should look at what Harlequin has done I think that they have made the transition to ebooks in a very smart way.

Ah well hopefully most of this will get sorted out fast!
