Amazon does not need to beat their competitors in selection if the competitors cannot compete with the ecosystem. For ease of use neither scribd or oyster will do me any good on my eink kindles. They are not reason enough to abandon my kindles either. Who knows if they are able to survive once Amazon goes aggressive in gaining market share. "Accidental" leak of KU? I don't believe that for a second - it is the start of something to keep an eye on. Amazon got enough money up their sleeve to play dirty.
