Yes, I know that Amazon didn't shut them down, a bunch of C&D letters from authors did.
My only point was that Amazon does not support people who run these ebook lending sites, and I don't think there's much of a future in it.
- pseudonym 14y agoOf course Amazon doesn't support it-- they, like the C&Ding authors, subscribe to the kool-aid of "everyone that was lending these books would have been a sale".

- Turing_Machine 14y agoNot only do they support it, they actually pay a higher royalty rate to authors who enable lending (making the book lendable is one of the requirements for the 70% royalty tier). If you make the book an Amazon exclusive, you even get paid something when the book is lent (at least for the period of exclusivity).
