Amazon Kindle Unlimited Launches in Canada

Amazon Kindle Unlimited launched in the US last summer and now has expanded into Canada. Starting today, the all you can read subscription service can be accessed and over 750,000 titles are available for $9.99 a month.

Canadians can get reading right away with a 30 day free trial with no financial commitment. You can read using your dedicated Kindle e-Reader, Fire tablet or any of the Kindle branded reading apps for Android and iOS.

Kindle Unlimited’s Canadian rollout also includes 15,000 French language titles. It’s worth being slightly wary though, as the service was found to include a lot of self-published titles when it launched elsewhere.

I would not pay $9.99 for these books – most of them are from the indie self-published dung pile and are not even worth downloading if they were free. Yes you may see a few high end books like Potter or Hunger Games but consider how popular these titles were – most people have already read them or own a version or two of each.

Yeah I agree. The lack of major publisher support is killing Unlimited Dead. I think Amazon is betting on bloggers to bring this issue up and beat it to death that publishers will eventually cave in. I think Oyster and Scribd are doing it right, and they have publisher support with bestsellers and backlist titles.
