I find it okay when they add things like this,as long as there is a setting to put it off, for me it is not important to have those kind of statistics where u can easy fool yourself, some books are not so easy to read but they are good, but then you have to skip these or your average words per minute is dropping.
I don't want to fight with u or anyone else, but I read for pleasure, not for competition or to show my average words per minute.
That would not be fair either, I have a special form of dislectic, I see words as pictures,therefore I read very fast,but I don't actually read the words, I scan complete parts of a page, I am more busy with turning pages then reading words.. I don't even see the vowels.
I've never heard my Aura HD or Aura make a sound. I don't think they even have speakers. When I finish a book it takes me directly out to the home page. I don't get any extra screens.
