I can see both sides, but in the end, I coming down in @Amazon’s corner.

I had decided not to post this when I wrote it last week, mainly because I felt I was arguing for something that wasn’t even Amazon’s end objective, but given Jeff Bezos’s statement yesterday on Amazon, I hit the nail right on the head regarding ebook pricing.  Mr. Bezos, I applaud you.  😉   Anyone …
