I doubt it.
There are people that only read once, people that only use subsriptions, or streaming, people that only use libraries. Not just books, but music and video.
There are people that mostly buy content.
There are people that buy & subscribe/rent.
Publishers & authors would not agree to a KU model only. They like to be paid full amount no matter how much of a book is read. They'd suffer a loss of income. Some readers would never embrace subscription only, so Amazon would lose sales.
