Psst, Kindle-owners - how do you feel about this Amazon-Macmillan fight?

The New York Times is reporting that Amazon has delisted all Macmillan titles because the publisher requested they raise the Kindle prices to $15. Macmillan includes the Tor, St. Martin's,
and Henry Holt imprints, amongst others...

What I want to know, dear Kindle owners, has Amazon yanked or delisted the Macmillan titles you already have on your Kindles? How far does this spat go?

ETA:
Read Street picked this up too, as did Tobias Buckell

This is interesting news I don't own a kindle but I do own a iPod. Personally I wouldn't want to pay 15 bucks for something that I didn't have a hardcopy of. That's almost the price of a real book
