See, here is what I do not understand. According to everything I have read--including things from Apple and on various dev forums--Apple has always restricted in-app purchases.
According to your post, Amazon is calling something that has always (apparently) been a part of the contract. so Amazon is not being truthful in that they are blaming Apple by calling this a recent change.
To be fair to Apple, Amazon apparently broke the rules and violated Apple's TOS.
Can anyone clarify?

Your Kindle books will be delivered to your Kindle application and automatically downloaded when you open the app. Thanks for being a Kindle customer.
