That is correct and there really aren't many people who will sign up for the ads just to save $25.
Which why the KSO is really going to sell on the strength of the deals.
Its not as if Amazon is hiding their intent: look to the product page and see what Amazon's sales pitch looks like.
Let's just wait and see what buyers/recipients of the first KSOs have to say by august. Cause the first month I'm pretty sure there's going to be a lot of excitement over the $50 Roku and the $1 albums...
The real test is going to be long-term customer satisfaction and there are really two sets of customers here; the KSO users *and* the deal providers. On a short-term basis the former are likely to be very happy with their "free" Kindles. The latter? Therein lies the rub...
