As of yesterday, you can no longer purchase books in the Kindle app allegedly to comply with google playstore requirements.

You now have to go online in Amazon to buy books which is much less convenient and rather confusing.

Is it the cynic in me that thinks Amazon are telling porkies (or at least exaggerating), so all Kindle users have to visit Amazon site (and get bombarded with apps). I am bloody sure Kindle could have been updated to comply with google playstore requirements e.g. adding extra layer of authentication.

I smell a rat!
