Of course publishers are greedy. So is Amazon. So are you and so am I. We live in a capitalist economy which is a way to try to make greed productive and it works pretty well, although it certainly has it's problems.

The fact is that greedy publishers have given us great books to read over the centuries. And now Amazon is giving us an alternative to their gatekeeping, one of the problems with big publishers. Thanks to capitalism life keeps getting better and better for us readers.
