Except that the hurt is widely distributed at the higher price, but not at the lower price (where it's felt by a few large publishers).

This kind of unequal distribution can cause the slight lessening of pain for a large number of people to mortally wound the few actually producing content, leading to a serious destabilizing of the market, which requires that both parties have something to provide.
