That's a mighty-fine hair to split. Don't you actually have to buy books from Amazon in order to read them?

- estel 16y agoI don't doubt it's a fine line (though only for Kindle), but I do think it's at least arguable that as intrinsic as the store is to the product, the Kindle app is better described as "reads books" rather than "sales books". Of course, it would be trivial to split that either way: but the Kongregate app appears at least somewhat more on one side of the definition.
- Aaronontheweb 16y agoI thought Kongregate's apps were all free, ad-supported flash games? It's been a while since I've used the service though.
- benologist 16y agoThey mostly are, although there's some that have virtual goods using their Kreds system. The best part about Kongregate is they share the revenue with developers - when they do the big campaigns like the Dragon Age one last year developers were getting $4 - $5 per 1000 plays!
