This is the only reason I still use the Kindle store. I have cut way, WAY back on my Kindle purchases and mostly only use Kindle Unlimited now (because that's almost always the reason the author is exclusive) instead of buying a book as I might have previously.
I prefer to purchase rather than rent, but not so much that I'm still willing to purchase a Kindle book unless it's really, REALLY necessary, like the series this weekend that books 1, 2, 4, and 5 are at Kobo, but 3 is still only at Amazon.
I know that some of the indie authors I read don't want to publish outside Amazon, because this is sort of a side job for them and that would add more work than is realistically feasible, which I can understand. But there are a few other authors I should put a little form letter together and send off to them, because they are full-time authors with full-time staff and a high rate of sales, there's no (obvious) reason why they can't add broader publication.
