Arguments I will point out again, and again if necessary. Amazon has a choice. They can choose to lower or completely stop discounting books that offer them only a 20-39% discount. They can accept the fact that, on the bookselling side of this equation, they are a retailer and accept 40% off list, standard, like every other bookseller. In other words, they can quit trying to put the brick-and-mortar bookstores out of business and play fair. They apparently haven't chosen to be fair, to compete on a level playing field. In my mind, this puts their honesty in question. On the printing side of things, Amazon can quit acting like a two-bit thug and clean up BookSurge's act, the quality issues, that sort of thing. They could strive for the best, most consistent quality and lower their prices a notch, and compete--fairly and honestly.
