Amazon changed their tracking method and now looks at time per page so you can't quickly skim a book and reward an author.

I've never used Kindle Unlimited myself. Yet I have purchased enough books that show they are available there that I would probably enjoy it and find it of value. I just don't value it enough to buy a Kindle. Not buying a Kindle means out I miss out on some Kindle perks. I'm just surprised others don't feel the same way.

Im also quite surprised to hear an American say "not cricket." Even the English dont say it, except maybe the toffs. The last person I readmusing it was Humphrey Appleby.
It likely comes from my love of old movies/TV/radio/novels and soforth.

I have all sorts of random stuff rattling around in my head.
