As someone that was actually affected by the decision Amazon took, I think jknupp has an opinion more valid than someone considering the situation hypothetically.
- sailormoon 17y agoAn "opinion more valid"? I don't think so. He might be able to offer a "this is how it made me feel" angle or something, and I liked hearing about how it's his favourite book, but otherwise he has no more insight or information than anyone else. I am not trying to criticise jknupp. I liked his comment. But I reject the suggestion that only Kindle owners can legitimately comment on this matter.
- andreyf 17y agoYou're right, that was sloppy - I'd have trouble defining what makes an opinion "[more|less] valid". And even with the "intuitive" definition one could just as well argue jknupp is biased in his opinion on the perspective parties' rights in the matter, as he could be trying to justify the $350 we paid for the device (and more for the "books").
