The store may be "Kindle exclusive", but it's not even tied to the device: There are Kindle apps for PC, Mac, iPad, iPod Touch/iPhone, etc. Also I'm pretty sure just about everything you can buy on the Kindle store, you can buy at other e-book stores.

There's no monopoly, no matter how you try to spin it.
When making the same point on another thread, someone chose to point out that there are now "Kindle exclusive" e-books. Of course they also chose to ignore that the paper books were available at multiple stores, despite my linking to them.
