If I were an author and had friends who had nothing better to do with their day, then they might be asked to fast read a book to generate payments to me. Of course, since my friends are far lazier than me, and since we have no idea what the payout rate is for a completed book read, I would need to plea to them as a George S***os liar, and claim that it would generate $0.50 per book, and benefit my campaign fund. Amazon probably has statistics where they know the average completion rate for KU books. The farthest I ever got on a Max Allan Collings book was 25%, after realizing that he is a formulaic, prolific writer with none of the imagination of Charles Dickens.
Is there a finite number of page flips you can do with an e-reader? My most heavily used e-reader is an Irex, and it is plagued with shadowing. With 11 Kindles, I hardly think I will ever encounter this problem.
