Default Re: Kindle (question for Mason)

[ QUOTE ]
I just finished reading about the Kindle, the e-book brought to market by Amazon, and I was wondering if any 2plus2 books will be available on that device.

[/ QUOTE ]

even though im also looking forward to 2+2 titles being available in some kind of e-book format i am strongly opposed to supporting the amazon/kindle.

why? simply because amazon is trying to set up a monopoly here. you can't use any non kindle format DRM e-book on the kindle device and you won't be able to use kindle formatted e-books on any other device than the kindle itself.

and i think it would be bad for everyone (readers and publishers) to let amazon take them as hostages!

i am also curious if amazon will even try to bring the kindle to europe, because the EU would definitely stick the kindle back into bezo's arse [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

anyway i'd also like to here 2+2's stance on this topic.
