I wouldn't want to be giving 30% of every sale to another guy either. They were probably making no money iOS digital sales.

This whole problem is solved by logging into the comixology website on your tablet 1 time and having it remember your login. Then you can browse however long you want without getting on a computer.

I'm just super happy that there is now a purchases tab in the app...that's all I ever wanted to begin with.
Well, the thing is we don't know how much they will be losing now

It could very well be that Amazon just wants to absorb the 30% themselves instead of giving it to the creators
