As kacir said, Amazon doesn't like people to offer their books elsewhere for a lower price. Maybe if you couch it as a "special promotional offer?"
Thanks rjb. Yeah, you're right. I don't know how to do the uploading thing and I think doing it would be a mess. Like I would have to be a customer service rep for everybody who had the slightest problem downloading or didn't know how to sideload a mobi onto their Kindle.

It seems like such a simple idea, though.

And good suggestion about the "special promotional offer." It's ironic, isn't it? If I want to make a book free at Amazon they won't do it.
