RE: Kindle Unlimited - Unlimited ebook subscription - 1Million+ ebooks to explore

in #steemhunt7 years ago

hi @fknmayhem, thats ok. I've seen many web applications which provide services based on subscription and we have many hunts similar to them. Some of the examples would be image conversion, video editor etc.. I'm not complaining but trying to understand that why this subscription from Amazon is not a product. I recently bought this product and you know books which are worth of $20 or so with Kindle Unlimited plan I get to read for free and it stays with me until the subscription plan is over and moreover I can buy the book as well with the kindle unlimited plan at a cheaper price. I, respect your decision but would like to have some insights as to why other web services which have subscription plans get approved. Thank you.

Yes, but they are web apps. If you hunt buffer (the social media scheduling app), it’s ok because you actually hunt the technology.

The technology here is Kindle (the app), Amazon’s book sales platform (and its whispersyncservice in the countries where available).

This is a plan similar to Comixology Unlimited, a [subscription] plan but not the product itself. I love it though and I immediately subscribed to it (just like I did to Comixology Unlimited when it was launched), but it isn’t the tech itself... it’s a cheaper value offer.

We wouldn’t for example approve Buffer for Teams because it’s still the same Buffer, it’s merely a discount offer.

Sure. Thank you for explaining Aprreciate it. Cheers.

You know what... because I find reading so important and this was a long overdue introduction I’m going to approve it at mod’s discretion (not a reference case).

Hopefully it will soon be opened up to be worldwide, at the same or adapted to local rates, terms because this is an awesome service.

Note that this doesn’t constitute of a reference case.

wow.. that's'great...Yes I agree too that this should be open world wide pretty soon. Thank you.
