point 9:
"Furthermore, Amazon dictates that developers cannot set their list price above the lowest list price "available or previously available on any Similar Service." In other words, if you want to sell your content anywhere else, you cannot prevent Amazon from slashing the price of your game by setting a high list price. And if you ever conduct even a temporary price promotion in another market, you must permanently lower your list price in Amazon's market."
This seems to imply that if you offer your app in a free-app-a-day promotion, you're required to offer it for free permanently to Amazon, although there's no way that can be correct
[Edit: it seems I misunderstood the parent comment. I'm referring here to free-app-a-day promotions like this http://www.freeappaday.com/ http://www.freeappaday.com/. I wan't aware Amazon offered something similar
I was saying it looked like if a developer promoted their app on a site like this, point 9 make it look like they'd be forced to offer it for free, forever, on the Amazon store]
- benjamind 16y agoI do not think this applies to Amazons own listing of your apps. Therefore they can list your app for free, pay you 20% of your list price for downloads of the app and force you to not make 'free' promotions on other markets with point 9 as you described.
- mattmcknight 16y ago"And if you ever conduct even a temporary price promotion in another market, you must permanently lower your list price in Amazon's market." seems to not be entirely accurate with regards to the prior statement "cannot set their list price above the lowest list price available or previously available on any Similar Service". If the _list_ price on the similar service doesn't change, but there is a temporary promotion on the similar service, this condition would seem to _not_ apply.
