What convenience? I have the Kindle App on my Mac and could be buying the book on the Mac for immediate use on the Mac.
There's no difference.
In both cases I'm using an Apple device to buy Kindle content to consume on that Apple device.

1) The only one who has currently been affected by the policy change is Sony, and they have objected.
2) That's irrelevant. The fact that Amazon's app can potentially generate millions of dollars in sales for Amazon has absolutely no bearing on whether Apple is entitled to a cut of sales in which they took no part.
