The only ones who can't play in Amazon's garden are those who fear the plants will grow teeth and eat them. And even then, their exclusion is by their own choice.

Hmm, it's not walled, but there is a fence... Not everybody is welcome. If you do have an e-reader but it's not a kindle, please look elsewhere.
But most non-Amazon shops have the same fenced garden: If you have a kindle, you're not welcome as we only serve epubs.
