I'm doing the 3 month trial with one of my books only. Frankly, it's the one which is only of interest to Amazon Kindle users. And being in the UK, a lot of other ebook stores are not open to me anyhow.
The way I see it - if your livelihood is dependent on one or two megacorps like Amazon, Google or eBay - be very afraid. You have fewer rights than an employee and they can (and quite likely will) change their terms and conditions on a whim overnight to your disadvantage. My view though is to make hay while the sun shines. We are in a golden age at the moment. As every man and his dog realises they can sell "books" - things will get a lot harder.
My guess is that things will change either way once the first lending checks arrive. If the numbers are good, lots of others will join select and drive down the value of a borrow - if they are bad, lots will leave.
