Nov 5th 2011, 23:42

Today Amazon posted the big news on their website: Kindle Owners who have an Amazon Prime Membership can borrow books for free with no due date. Here is the announcement: Dear Customers, Today we're announcing a new benefit for Kindle owners with an Amazon Prime membership: the Kindle Owners' Lending Library. Kindle owners can now choose from thousands of books to borrow for free, including over 100 current and former New York Times Bestsellers — as frequently as a book a month, with no due dates. No other e-reader or ebook store offers such a service. Kindle Owners' Lending Library The Kindle Owners' Lending Library features a wide array of popular titles, including Water for Elephants, Moneyball: The Art of Winning an Unfair Game, and Fast Food Nation – plus award-winning novels such as The Finkler Question, motivational books like The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, biographies and memoirs including Kitchen Confidential, and Pulitzer Prize-winning books like Guns, Germs, and Steel. We're adding the Kindle Owners' Lending Library to Prime membership at no extra cost — Amazon Prime remains just $79 a year, which gives you free two-day shipping on millions of products, plus unlimited instant streaming of almost 13,000 movies and TV shows. If you're a Kindle owner with Prime, you can start borrowing books today. If you don't yet have a Kindle, our all-new Kindle family is available from just $79. We're working hard to continuously drive even more value for Kindle owners. We hope you enjoy the new library — happy borrowing.

Free 2-day shipping, free ebook rental, free unlimited streaming of movies/tv shows. Discuss.
