Amazon has just launched, in Italy, Kindle Unlimited. This service promises to be a real revolution for fans of reading, as it allows you to always have access to a vast library, at a really low cost. This is a subscription service that costs only € 9.99 a month, gives you access to over 700,000 titles in e-book format. In fact, for now, the lyrics are in Italian only 15,000, but the number is going to grow quickly.
Of course, in order to read, you have to acquire an e-book reader Kindle or other device (tablet, smartphone or PC) who have installed the app to read Amazon. The first 30 days are also free. In the US the service is already active since last July, and has aroused great interest.
An excellent opportunity especially for “heavy readers” who can read a lot at an affordable price. A point in favor of e-books, which are gradually gaining new market share, even if it’s far the demise of the paper book, which still has many admirers and a special charm. The two media seem destined to live a long time even if, at a time of economic crisis, the ability to save will definitely impress readers.
That the economic aspect in this regard is crucial, also bears witness to the countryside # unlibroèunlibro, which combined on twitter and facebook for the major Italian publishers. It is a strong protest on the removal of barriers, which prevent the full deployment of the ebook, in particular the imposition of 22%, much higher than that reserved for paper books, which is 4%
And you, when you read, you prefer the book or ebook?
