I wonder how much the New York Times viewpoint was influenced by its proximity to the headquarters of book publishers and the extent of book publishing advertising in its newspaper. Amazon probably does not advertise much in the New York Times. I say bring on low prices! I am done buying dead-tree books, and my book reading has trebled after buying a Kindle. I hope that Amazon's own imprints do well and give even more authors the chance to profitably publish their works.
