Even though I've had both of those accounts for years, and set them both up using a PC, not an Apple device?

Apple only charges 30% for electronic sales, not physical goods, thus the normal Amazon app sells everything and anything, while the Kindle app directs you to the web page. Same with Netflix and Hulu Plus. Nothing goes to Apple. I believe that you sign up for the non-free versions of Pandora and Spotify via their web sites. I know that you can buy music from iTunes via Pandora, not sure about Spotify.
