The problem there is giving Amazon money for exclusive eBooks. That's telling Amazon it's OK for them to lock up eBooks with their non-standard locks. Soon to be even more of an issue with KF8. We have to take a stand and tell Amazon that what they are doing is unacceptable and we won't pay for it.
