Leverage on music was much bigger because of the position that Apple had at the time, together with CDs not having DRM.
That was a unique situation that couldn't be replicated later for video and other media sadly.

So how can you make the case that Amazon doesn't have "leverage" to negotiate DRM-free publishing?

I don't recall printed books ever having any form of "DRM".
Whereas I have many eBooks purchased years ago from Apple's store that I can only read on Apple devices, not on my Kindle.
