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).
gollark: gollark finds it weird that cameron is referring to himself in the third person.
