The article seems well reasoned to me. It gives Amazon the credit for establishing the ebook mass market. Apple got 5 of the top 6 publishers to change their way of business because of the iPad. Because of their deal with Apple, those same publishers have forced Amazon and all the rest of the ebook sellers to change to "agency pricing" for those same 5 major publishers. That's just the fact, no kool-aid required.
