And announcing it the same day that BN announces whatever it is announcing, I am guessing a Nook Color 2, is a nice touch. Yeah they have a new device. We have a new device and for a pretty low cost you can stream videos for free and now borrow 12 brand new books for free, with no wait at the library and without worrying about dealing with disgruntled librarians. |

Now see I use them all. I get good deals on stuff that way. Paypal is awesome for shopping for books. Fictionwise, Kobo and Books on Board all take Paypal. I get used paperbacks through eBay and Amazon Merchants. I prefer eBay because I get shipping either free or near free. Albris also takes Paypal so sometimes I use them for my real book needs.

Is this feature still being rolled-out? I am not seeing "Kindle Owners Lending Library" or "Borrow for Free" on my Kindle. I see on a book that says "0.00" next to "prime", but it only gives me an option of "buy for $x.xx".

Merchants that use Amazon to warehouse and ship their items DO qualify for Prime, and there are a lot of them. I never shop Amazon without hitting that Prime Eligible button.
I've been a Prime member for 6 years - first got the trial the year I was on pregnancy bed rest during holiday shopping. And then I discovered they offered diapers for auto-ship, and never looked back. Due to allergies, there are a few specific name brands we need to buy, and I earn back my $79 every year in the first 3 months. Not only is the auto-ship price 15% cheaper, but I don't have to waste gas running all over town and I don't have to worry about running out of necessities. The Prime video and Kindle features are just perks, but that, and the ease of public library lending, are making me seriously consider buying a Kindle Touch. Up to now, I've just used my iOS apps, but I do miss having an e-Ink reader on my morning commute. |
