Please do not confuse Kindle unlimited with the Prime service.

Agreed. The "Prime Reading" (PR) service has a ridiculously small selection of not very desirable books. And Amazon rarely changes what is available via PR. The selection is rather fixed over time, with a few changes every now and then. By "few" I mean "half a dozen or so changes every 3 months".
But that is different than the "Kindle Owners Lending Library" (KOLL), which also comes as a benefit with Prime. It is KOLL that I was speaking of in my previous posts in this thread, not PR.
KOLL appears to have the exact same selection of books as "Kindle Unlimited" (KU), but with KOLL you only can check out one book per month. So KOLL is (apparently) the same as KU in content choice, but with severe limitations on how much you can borrow.
So we have three things in play here: PR (comes with Prime), KOLL (also comes with Prime), and KU (requires a separate paid subscription). None of these three distinct services has many (any?) books from the big name publishers/authors. You're just not going to typically find books by, say, Clive Cussler in PR, KOLL or KU.
