How do you feel about Amazon's influence on books and publishing?
I think anything that combines art and money is heinous. I have a socialist/communist philosophy of art: like medical care, everyone should have it for free.
That being said, and speaking from our current reality, Amazon has some good points. Like all corporations, they don't care about art at fucking all, let alone artists.
My books are on Amazon and I should do something about that. 😬
