Missing the bigger point

It's a matter of time before the big publishers wake up...or go out of business. The music industry tried to protect the CD and their enormous profit margins, too, but they succumbed to the inevitable. So will publishers.

There's already a lot of competition out there in the sub-$10 and sub-$5 range. Not your bestsellers, but you know, there are a lot of good books that publishers have let go out of print or that are published by small presses.
