Amazon kills Kindle titles from Chicago publisher IPG
February 22, 2012
Chicago-based Independent Publishers Group, the country's second-largest distributor that deals exclusively with independent publishers, says its e-book titles have been dropped by Amazon after IPG resisted price cuts demanded by the Internet retailer. IPG President Mark Suchomel said Amazon was pressuring publishers and distributors “to change their terms for electronic and print books to be more favorable toward Amazon.” He said IPG wouldn't budge after Amazon chose not to renew their agreement to sell Kindle titles.
