Now, read all you can at Amazon for a fee
Print Edition
AMAZON.COM Inc has launched a US$9.99-per-month subscription service that lets customers read as much as they choose from its library of more than 600,000 digital books.
Subscribers to the Kindle Unlimited service can read e-books, including “The Hunger Games” and “Life of Pi,” on Amazon’s Kindle e-reader or any device with a Kindle app. Subscribers also have access to thousands of audio books. The launch of Kindle Unlimited comes as Amazon remains mired in a months-long contract dispute with the No. 4 US publisher Hachette Book Group, owned by France’s Lagardere, over how to price e-books. Amazon is also in talks about digital book pricing with CBS Corp’s Simon & Schuster.
Amazon’s move to offer the Kindle Unlimited service reflects consumers’ growing preference toward subscription-based models for consuming digital media, such as Netflix Inc for movies and television shows and Spotify for music.
The new Amazon service will compete with others in the market, including Oyster, which charges US$9.95 per month for unlimited access to more than 500,000 titles.
