It won't change anything. It's only a good move because of who she is. And honestly, I can't see her selling more than 30,000 copies of each of these ebooks. And self-publishing on your own isn't a good move when people want to load your book directly onto the device from the store, aswell as use any credit they have on their account.
And personally, I'm NOT about to fork up $50-100 to get them all on my Kindle. And most people, like parents, aren't going to let their kids pay for something like that when they already have a couple of different copies of every book already. I personally have about four of each myself. When you can buy the whole set of lightly used copies for less than $25, why are you going to buy a digital set for much more? There are 450 MILLION+ copies of them sitting around right now.
No, I think this whole idea will fail and that they'll eventually get added to all the services respectfully later on to make up for it.
