Article: Bad Amazon – Kindle Matchbook


The link below is to an article that takes a different approach to Kindle Matchbook and once again Amazon is the bad boy.

I think most publishers have had an issue with looking after their customers/readers, so it’s really no surprise that this would be a something they take issue with.
