Which those of us in commercial production STILL have to make. I don't care what you think about this, Jon. I still have to make them. AMAZON calls it MOBI, whether YOU like it or not. Whether YOU or anyone else thinks it's an obsolete file format, and the KF8 files that we build are STILL using .mobi as the file extension. Be as pedantic as you wish, but Amazon rules this roost.

Nope. It is KF8. You know, the one that has a .azw3 extension in Calibre.

Which means
NOTHING, as it's not part of the Amazon ecosystem. We're discussing whether or not KF8 MOBIs, built as part of Kindlegen, are bigger or smaller than .kpf files, as built as part of Kindle Create.
Talking about what Calibre does or doesn't do
isn't relevant, Jon. Sorry, but it's
not. You can't upload an .azw3 file, so...why even bring it up? What it does, how it builds it...it's not germane to this.

Kind Unlimited is chock full of really bad porn. The thing I really dislike is porn that trying to be Fantasy or science fiction and when you look on Amazon for Fantasy or Science Fiction, you get bombarded with really crappy porn.
I think we (MR regulars) should get together and write a really bad porn book and put it up on Kindle Unlimited.

Can't argue about KU and porn, good, bad or otherwise, but you can't blame that on Amazon. Obviously, as pathetic as it is, there's a vast market for it.
