From the Wall Street Journal Digital edition:
"Amazon Digital Library, Book Prices Pressure Publishers: The
Kindle maker is trying to get book publishers to buy into a book rental service
for digital content, reports the Wall Street Journal. But publishers aren’t
excited, believing that such a Netflix-like service could lower the value of
books and strain relationships with other book retailers. The service would
charge customers a fixed monthly fee.
According to the WSJ, Amazon told publishers that the service would feature
older titles. Publishers would also receive a “substantial fee” for
participating."
