Either way, Amazon is offering a 30-day free trial of Kindle Unlimited, so you can test your binge-reading capabilities before committing to pay for the service.Q. Think of Kindle Unlimited more like Netflix, which has a spotty selection of movies for its streaming library (especially during its early days) rather than Spotify, which typically gets new album releases the same day they go on sale in physical stores. Also, books from major publishers such as Penguin Random House, HarperCollins, Simon & Schuster and Hachette so far don’t appear to be part of the service.
Customers lose access to Unlimited’s library of books if they end their subscription, whereas readers can typically hold on to purchased books forever. This doesn’t necessarily mean avid readers should dive head-first into Kindle Unlimited. If we say that the typical e-book best-seller costs $7.50, a customer would need to read more than 16 books per year to derive a greater value from Kindle Unlimited than buying the books individually. During 2013, e-books on the Digital Book World best-sellers’ list mostly sold for between $7 and $8 on average (the price in the most recent recorded week in 2014 was $7.52). E-books on Amazon can vary wildly in price, from $0.99 to hundreds of dollars. At $9.99 per month, Kindle Unlimited costs about $120 per year.
