Party over: Amazon now owns e-books

Amazon.com: Kindle Unlimited - Unlimited Reading. Unlimited Listening. Any Device.

"Enjoy unlimited access to over 600,000 titles and thousands of audiobooks on any device for just $9.99 a month."

Yeah, it’s sort of a commercial (unrecompensed). But still. If you’re a serious reader this pretty much puts an end to the discussion about vendors. (I’ve been reading e-books from a public library for the last couple of months but the selection is somewhat sparse. Meanwhile, the last e-book I purchased cost $13.00.)
