What's "PC" in this context?  And no, I'm not against globalization. 
And I don't recall mentioning anything about "deregularization or
something".  I was simply pointing out that one company has taken 
control of the market, to the detriment of the customers and publishers. 
  I also oppose Microsoft's domination of the software market for 
similar reasons.

In the case of book stores, Heather Reisman has greatly reduced the 
selection of books available to customers and has publicly stated her 
intention to move her book stores in other directions.  Unfortunately, 
there are few other available book stores, that carry the books we're 
looking for.
