question. At the $0.99 price does the free sample go away given there is less margin to work with? I am not sure I would even give the lack of a sample a second thought, though many might.

I know right now I burn through a LOT of samples from Amazon for reference books, I know different animal. But I don't think I've downloaded more than a couple samples of fiction titles since the K1 first was released. So I am not sure the samples matter for me when looking at fiction or entertainment titles. I am the sort who barely even reads the back cover or dust-jacket because I want the whole thing to be new to me going into the book. I just want to read enough to decide is the idea of the book is likely to be something I find interesting. I can adapt to any writing style and am not that fussy to need a sample for fiction.
