Amazon: the “Send to Kindle” is still free – PCLab.pl

Last week, holders of readers Kindle lost the ability to wirelessly Mobi files. This coincided with the announcement of a new pricing Amazon Cloud Drive, so the media industry wysnuły very likely conclude that the function of the Send to Kindle ceased to be free, because it uses a cloud-mentioned data. The reality was somewhat different, and Amazon confirms that the transmission will still be free.

So far, Amazon Cloud Drive server offering 5 GB data free of charge but after the last update price list free of charge only the first 3 months of service. Then Unlimited photo storage and 5 GB of space for other files that costs $ 12 per year. There is also a more expensive package that removes all restrictions for $ 60 per year. With the addition of new subscriptions to the service stopped working Send to Kindle, which is associated with the Amazon cloud. For this reason, most people decided that from now on users of e-book reader will need to purchase access to the cloud, if they still want to be able to easily upload files to their device.

Those allegations – even rational – proved is wrong. Amazon consultants have already said that a break in the action data is only failure resulting from changes in the cloud, and now confirmed that the relevant entry in the rules of the server. Nevertheless, within two days of non Send to Kindle feature a lot of people agreed to purchase a subscription, which immediately restored the ability to send files Mobi. The whole situation seems strange and ultimately do not know if Amazon simply later changed his mind, whether it actually has struggled with a temporary failure. Ultimately, it all ended well, but the image of the company had already affected.
