Hi Sieghard,

I guess the 30% is to compensate for the fact that you are purchasing a
Kindle book and not an IBook.  That way, Apple get their money one way or
the other.  So much for our freedom of choice.

Subject: RE: Buying A Kindle Book With The Amazon App

Hi Rick and others,

There is no way to buy a Kindl book via the Kindl app just as there is no
way to buy an Audible book via the Audible app. A couple of years ago Apple
has changed their policy regarding in-app purchases, if Amazon sold Kindl or
Audible books via the app, they would have to pay Apple 30% of the price and
obviously they are not going to do that.

I think it's a bit greedy of Apple to demand this, it's not like they don't
make enough money and also they do not prevent people from buying Kindl
books or Audible books by forcing them to go through the website first. But
they do make the user experience less seamless and convenient.


Regards,
Sieghard
