What you or I might want isn't very important. If I like a TV show, it is almost certain to be canceled, the market looks at a broader picture than my tastes. I'm not against using a web browser to read books. I am just saying that reading books on the computer is a small part of the e-book market. Reading books on the computer is a supplement to reading on e-readers and tablets.

You can read your Kindle books on the web with Firefox and Chrome. You have to install a browser app, I don't know if your computer policies allow that or not.
