“Never trust Amazon search,” and Amazon programmer told me. As we speak, Amazon is busy strong-arming the larger publishers to pay it to give their books more publicity, which of course means that everyone else’s books gets less visibility and may disappear altogether for search results. The actual developer of this free software for Mac is Oracle. They also want to squeeze publishers and authors from another direction. Java SE Development Kit 8 1.8 for Mac is free to download from our application library. Amazon does nothing but pocket 65% of the retail price for an credit card transaction and file download that costs it pennies.
That’s not much better than the 25% that’s the ebook standard for traditional publishers and those publishers edit, proof, layout and market an ebook. Who else has an entire organization dedicated to criticizing them?Īnd for what? Amazon pays the worst royalties in the ebook industry, just 35% on ebooks retailing outside the $2.99 to $9.99 range that they have fixed at the ‘proper’ price for ebooks. Amazon does seem intent on become replacing Comcast as the most hated company in America-at least among writers. If we want to create the KF8 equivalent of fixed-layout, they expect us to pay some large sum to a third-pary company. They won’t spend money, so all of us get stuck with spending more time that we ought creating Kindle books.

It’s by far the ugliest thing on my Mac.Īmazon is the biggest retailer and the largest seller of ebooks on the planet and yet all they give for previewing is a dreadful Java app. Rotten, now I won’t have an excuse not to look at that vile Java app.
