The main reason I don't use Amazon as much as other sites? Most of my book money comes from online surveys. Those deposit into PayPal, and Amazon doesn't take PayPal.

So if a book is also available on a site that does take my preferred method of payment...

With the exclusives, can't do that. So I'm more likely to look at reviews to decide whether it's something I want to read.
