Your purpose in this thread was to argue the point that Amazon is too powerful, with market share that dominates the industry, yadda yadda yadda... halting the jailbreak, more control... KFX is just a part of Amazon's vertical integration attempts to own the physical act of publishing...

Discussions about the quality of KFX belong elsewhere.
Good post. One minor correction. Based on notimp's posts to date I don't think he is here to argue anything, just to preach, as contrary points are mostly ignored in favour of continuous repetition of his views.

Oh, and you left out one of his major themes, the vague destruction of culture argument hinging on Amazon's failure to treat books as special snowflakes.
