New Place to buy Kindle books – Fictionwise
Want an alternative to the Amazon Kindle store? Head on over to the Fictionwise Kindle store and click away. All you have to do is register on the site. Once you’ve done so you can elect to have the books sent wirelessly to your Kindle–remember Amazon charges $ .15/MB, or you can move your purchases to your device using the USB. Currently, you are limited to their non-DRM’d books, unless you use the KindlePID script that Amazon forced MobiPocket to remove from their site. Fictionwise in no way recommends use of the script, but if you’ve been doing that up to now, this announcement won’t really affect you.
Makes me wonder…Amazon bought Stanza and has owned MobiPocket for awhile; B&N owns Fictionwise. Whose move is it now?
(Update 12/17/2009 – Thanks to KindleVixen, I was informed the Fictionwise will not accept your KindlePID. See tools here for additional Kindle Tools info)
