Amazon and publishing

So much being written about companies not stocking books that are on/published by Amazon. What's an author to do? It feels like old boy's clubs are being erected - if we deign to publish you, or you're published by people we like, we'll give you entrance... I can understand the fury that Amazon is taking away everything, but really, it is up to people to choose, not the publishers, especially when there are so many books they refuse to publish, good books.
As a reader, I want choice, not the same old same old publishers keep publishing. As a writer, I want to be published. And I'll go, unfortunately perhaps, but I'll go with who will publish me, retain my rights, and hopefully, be read.
