MatchBook is supposed to go through print books you have purchased and offer low cost ($2.99 or less) on the Kindle edition (only with participating publishers). MatchBook is supposed to launch 'in October' but there are only a couple of days left. Or maybe they mean October 2014? Nah. We'll probably hear about it on Oct 31...
I think BearMountainBooks was saying that, once MatchBook is up and running, Amazon might offer something similar to the Matchmaker service, like a page which will show you which of your paper books are enrolled in MatchBook, and for which you can therefore get the Kindle book cheap/free.

I don't think she was suggesting that the link she provided was related to MatchBook, just that something similar might be available for MatchBook.
