The hole in the argument with the ibooks on kindle thing, is the Kindle isn't a device meant for really having third party things. The iPad is. Also, the other big thing is the kindle app was accepted and approved by Apple, and then Apple went back and changed the rules, and are no longer going to allow the kindle app unless it changes. It is apples and oranges if you're comparing not accepting an app at all, and forcing changes on an accepted app.

Funny enough, Amazon apparently never submitted the app. I can't imagine why they wouldn't. 
The Amazon market is Android based. I do not know of an iBooks android app. I suspect Apple is not interested in creating one, and therefore they would not have one to submit to the Amazon store. Until they do, your argument is purely hypothetical, I'm afraid.  |
Apple isn't even interested in making an iBooks app for OSX. How stupid is it that you cannot buy and read their ebooks on their own computers?
