In an absolutely devastating announcement (right before the holidays) Amazon has informed us that they are ending their Kindle Subscription program in Sept. 2023 and trying to get magazines to switch to Kindle Unlimited. Asking for more details, but this is bad. Magazine subscriptions are guaranteed revenue from each subscriber. KU is not like that. It will effectively cancel thousands of subscriptions since there's no migration path.
@clarkesworld this is horrible. While KU has it's place and perks, the individual subscription model ensures quality content from those sources I subscribe to and makes sure my $$ is supporting those creators!
@bryanspellman Yeah, I'm concerned that KU revenue will fluctuate more wildly and be less reliable than subscriptions.
