We talked about it before here, and now PCWorld is updating the story. Back in July, Amazon brazenly entered Kindle owners’ collections and summarily deleted titles by George Orwell that they had mistakenly sold them…this without asking permission or offering explanation. Read some of the fallout here.
Amazon CEO, Jeff Bezos ended up dishing out a sincere apology in an attempt at damage control.
On Friday Amazon announced it was offering a $30 Gift Card to the offended Kindle owners who lost copies of 1984 from their Kindles but are uninterested in a replacement.
You can tell the competition is heating up in the eBook Revolution. After all, if Amazon wanted to play nice they wouldn`t have broken into the Kindles in the first place, yah?
