Daniel Johnson — June 26, 2019 — Tech
Amazon Prime customers located in Canada will now be able to use Amazon's Prime Reading perk, which allows access to a number of free eBooks for no additional costs. The eBooks can be accessed on Kindle devices and also on the Kindle app for Android or iOS. Users are able to download 10 titles at a time.
Amazon's Prime Reading will bring hundreds of titles for users to choose from, some of which are narrated by Audible. Titles that are included in the Prime Reading program will have a "read for free" option that can be selected. Amazon is offering this to entice potential users into its Kindle Unlimited service, where users can access over 1 million different books. The service is priced at $9.99 a month.
