kindle settlement credit
Roughly a year ago many (or all) of us got an email saying to expect a credit as part of the Apple/Big 6 settlement. So many cents for every agency model ebook purchased if I remember right. I believe the email said it was expected to happen back in February.
Any idea when or if this will still happen? |

All of us? Hardly. US only, and not even all US states.

I'll be honest: I don't think it's happened yet, but even if it had ... I could easily see myself using up all the credit without knowing I ever had it in the first place (if it works like gift card balances do).

The e-mail from Amazon today said. "While we will not know the amount of your credit until the Court approves the settlements, it is estimated that it will range from $0.93 to $3.82 for every eligible Kindle book that you purchased. To be eligible, you must have a Minnesota billing address and must have purchased a Kindle book published by Hachette, HarperCollins, Simon & Schuster, Penguin or Macmillan between April 1, 2010 and May 21, 2012."
Unfortunately, I do not have a Minnesota billing address. |

The Amazon FAQ page is worded a bit different
