I’ve held off on commenting on Henry Blodget’s recent post entitled How to Save the Book Publishing Industry, as much has already been written. But I do want to point out Print is Dead’s Jeff Gomez’s take on the article, which I think sums things up nicely.

…this all just goes to show what publishers are up against. I mean, do people really think — in the face of enormously changing consumer habits and online trends — that it’s that simple? The fact is, many people do indeed think it’s as easy as just slashing prices.

Click through for Jeff’s entire post which likens Blodget’s argument to a past Seinfeld episode.
