Amazon Kindle: Counting The Usage
Ah, the Kindle. Amazon’s answer to portable readers. It’s popular enough for people to start asking questions. The inquiry here is simple: is it worth it? This isn’t answered in the way you’d expect it to be in a review. Take it a little more literally because we’re going to see the economics of the Kindle.
To wipe out the cost of the Kindle completely, you have to buy and read six books per month to wipe out the Kindle’s cost over the course of one year. That’s a pretty voracious reading schedule — and if you’re reading that many books, you’re probably spending most of your time in a library and not purchasing them on Amazon.
Six books every month? Maybe if you didn’t work or study it would be possible to find the time to get that done. You can find the actual numbers at the source, if you think the estimate in the quote is a little over the top. So, have you bought the Kindle yet? How often do you use it?
