Fair enough. As I noted, I am not happy with the OverDrive decision that is removing the ability to listen to library books on an MP3 player, instead of being limited to the Libby app.

I still think that people who are unhappy should do a little consumer action NOW, and take their purchases elsewhere. Will it make a difference? Unlikely. People here aren't a significant portion of Kindle sales. Still. If it's what you can do....

Akin to that is why I refuse to click on links to GoodeReader. It's all I can do and hope that others do the same. In any case, for various reasons I'm glad I've already stopped buying Kindle books, although I never saw Amazon as the great evil.
