Proof? Actual audited 3rd part stats? People keep writing this and it might only be true for a self-selecting minority.
Also it should be per loan, not page. Also Amazon should have to buy the content to list it, like our local library (which loans ebooks and pays royalty per loan on paper or ebooks, even if not read and is free to residents).
KU is only fair to Amazon. That's why it exists. Like Gym subs rather than pay as you go, Amazon benefits from subs disproportionately compared to sales, especially as KU boosts sales for Amazon of titles that are then exclusive.
