Amazon’s Kindle Price Punking
- goo 15y agoJust because this article hyperbolises the effect of ads on "book culture", doesn't mean it is in any way insightful or correct.
- darrenkopp 15y agoThat's a $30 discount _upfront_. How long until Amazon makes that $30 back? Amazon is not forcing you to purchase the ad based one, but it _is_ an option. If that option is worth $30 to the purchaser then fantastic, they just got the Kindle for less. No story here, just a whole bunch of FUD in which the author feels entitled to the Kindle at $79.99 without the ads.
