Amazon Kindle Contract Review and Annotation
Wednesday, July 8th, 2009
by members of the Contract Committee
This .pdf document is an annotation of the Amazon Kindle contract as it was posted on Amazon’s Web site (downloaded in February, 2008). Members of the SFWA Contract Committee compiled these annotations solely as an educational service to SFWA members. It is not legal advice and may not be relied on as such.
Our annotations consist of yellow-highlighting particular passages, then describing issues raised by the passage (using blue indented text). In a few cases we present new language (in blue highlight) that is relevant to an issue we raise.
We welcome comments or suggestions, particularly if Amazon amends the Kindle contract.
