Yeah, but eventually the eBook model will take off and Amazon will go "Okay, we're not paying that anymore but if you want your content in the store you'll sell it to us cheaper than that."
And thus we all win. Except the publishers. And... screw them.
(simplistic, I know, but... eh. Publishers complaining about the business model changing doesn't win you any friends. We ALL have to adapt to the age we're now in, and for most of us that means forking over a lot of cash and taking risks. They should be no different. As far as I'm concerned they're in the same boat as other media companies - adapt or die.)
