Nice thought, Karen, but Apple would never refuse them that designation. Nor should they. Unfortunately, Kindle sometimes has books that iBooks doesn’t have, so I would hate for those books to be unavailable. The guy at Amazon told me that this is not an issue on Kindle devices, only in the IOS app. We’ll see, but I figure the likelihood of them ever fixing it is pretty close to zero. Cheers, Donna
