Amazon sell kindle, people only buy books for it from Amazon, Amazon make money - Bezos buys new holiday island (eg Australia)

Amazon support open format ebooks, people buy kindle then get books everywhere else - Amazon make no money and Bezos forced to buy Grenada instead.

Amazon does support open formats, just not ePub. http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=2...
