I'll come out and say it then

I don't own a Kindle and don't intend ever to do so because I don't like Amazon, and don't want to give them my money if I can help it. (I can give reasons why I don't like them if anyone's interested, but they're not all that original.)
But even if I didn't dislike Amazon I'd have gone for one of their competitors because I think it's unhealthy when one provider of a consumer product gets too huge market dominance. Some competition keeps everybody on their toes, and makes it easier to find products that fit a broader range of interests and preferences.
