(It's For The Strength of Youth for Kindle.)
So, is the Church publishing to Kindle? I'm not sure why they'd be charging for it...
Or is this some third party trying to make a fast buck?

The Kindle version of Teachings of Presidents of the Church: George Albert Smith is available for free, although even that appears to be discounted from $0.99. Not being a Kindle owner (or publisher), I can't say for sure why most of the LDS publications for that platform are at $0.99.mdyoung wrote:I don't know why it costs 0.99$ but all the Churches publications which are available for the kindle cost that amount.
That doesn't appear to be the case. A search on Amazon for Free Kindle Books returns over 100K hits.johnsonth wrote:I'm pretty sure that Kindle requires publishers to charge this minimum amount for ebooks on the Kindle. I'm not 100% sure, but I remember reading something like this.
If you dig a bit deeper, you'll find some were not published by the church.russellhltn wrote:If one clicks on the link to the publisher, you find there's a verity of prices - some free. Even more interesting is the "by" for some of the other publications:
"This book was converted from its physical edition to the digital format by a community of volunteers."russellhltn wrote:"by Joseph Smith and Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints"
"Brought to you by the LDS Book Club (a Packard Technologies company)"russellhltn wrote:"by Mormon, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS), Joseph Smith and LDS Book Club"
