I haven’t bought any books from Amazon since D&T was removed. I still have KU though. I don’t see having it as a conflict. As far as I’m concerned it’s like a streaming service. I was never someone who only ever bought books from one store. So the removal of D&T hasn’t really affected me much. Since the removal I’ve bought 285 books. I’m a big fan of book bundles. I just bought the Martha Wells Humble Bundle yesterday. I have 8 library cards. I rarely ever buy individual books these days.
I message indies to let them know why I won’t be buying their books. I do so nicely. I explain the situation and I wish them well. I keep KU because I want to still support indies. I used to buy the KU books that turned into favorites, but I no longer do that.
