gollark: Wait, *final* book? I wonder how it's going to end up resolving everything.
gollark: Fun fact: if you put the URL between < and >, it won't display the embed.
gollark: Yes, it does make sense business-wise, I was just saying that I do not like them doing that.
gollark: I think the way it works is that if your ebook is under Kindle Unlimited, it can *only* be provided/sold through Amazon.
gollark: I'm not sure about "most", but definitely quite a lot. They have some sort of weird exclusivity thing going on, which I don't like much (not as an author, it just isn't very good for the market).
