* Amazon.com recently offered independent booksellers the opportunity to sell Kindles in-store, (with a whopping 6% discount! Yipee!) and to take a 10% commission on e-book titles sold for those Kindles for the next 2 years. As you may imagine, independent booksellers were less than overwhelmed with gratitude at this offer. Here are some of their responses, via Melville House Publishers: http://www.mhpbooks.com/we-are-not-amazon-franchises-booksellers-respond-to-amazon-source/
