You can be on Amazon without being exclusive to them. Otherwise, Amazon would likely have monopoly concerns.
KU is different. The question is how much they are making from there. Though for this book sounds like KU is coming through for them. In that instance, I wonder why they don't release the whole series via KU? But that sort of bean counting is over my head as I am not a publisher.
