So Kindle Unlimited Gives Traditionally Published Books an Advantage – What Else is New?

Kindle Unlimited launched on Friday with a catalog of 640,000 plus titles which Amazon customers in the US can read for a fee of $9.99 a month. Most of the titles (over 550,000) are drawn from KDP Select, with a levening of titles from traditional publishers including Wiley, Scholastic, WW Norton, HMH, and more (but no titles from the Big 5).

That program is only 5 days old but it is already having an effect on Amazon's best seller list.
