So, for just a rough idea, would it be of benefit to join it for the freebies offered only for Prime members, and for the lending library ?

Oh, and could I use it anyway, for ebooks, as I have K4PC not a kindle.

Thenks awfully.

I've found that delivery is normally quicker than Amazon's estimate, but I don't know how much this varies by UK location.
What period does the £49 charge cover - a month, year? It sounds worth a try to me (depending).
