Two days ago, the website of Time magazine published an article entitled “ Because having a cheap Kindle could cost hundreds of dollars “. I immediately thought of the fine print Amazon in unfair contracts in Ponzi schemes. I also my credibility, recommending Kindle right and left happily.
Willing to research thoroughly, read the full article – half a page, why lie – not written by one Matt Vella. Article entered a survey of Consumer Research Intelligent Partner with the following information: Kindle owners (Tablets and eReaders) spent a year or $ 1,233 versus $ 790 or Amazon customers who spent no Kindle . Matt Vella then concludes that a cheap Kindle could cost hundreds of dollars.
Topcheap Kindle in relation to what? Apparently relating to iPad. The author says: “Unlike rival Apple, which sells devices to an amount that leaves profit, Amazon is more or less happy to break even or even lose money on their devices” While an eReader as Paperwhite Kindle costs just $ 119 or a Kindle Fire Tablet as HDX costs $ 379 an amount even greater than the iPad Mini or $ 299 . Where appropriate, taking a comparative framework Amazon versus Apple, Matt Vella should find out how the client consumes an “expensive” device like the iPad, with a closed ecosystem where it prevents even upload files with a USB cable.
Just
the main problem of Mongoloid article in Time is to suggest that there is some relationship between compulsive subsidized price of Kindle device and hidden expenses or extras. What “costs hundreds of dollars” to the owner of an eReader are actually books that consumers choose to buy and read. I say “choose” because Kindle books also allows copying files themselves up with a USB or sending them to an email address of Amazon wire, after which the file is converted and transferred to the Kindle for free.
