Which is better Blinkist or Scribd?
Verdict. Scribd and Blinkist can complement each other or can appeal to very different publics. If you are looking to read or listen to full books, then Scribd is a much better choice. Its strong suit is fiction rather than nonfiction, though.

How much does a Kindle Unlimited subscription cost?
A Kindle Unlimited subscription costs $9.99 per month, or $119.98 per year. There’s also a free 30-day trial so you can test it out beforehand. If you’re in for the long haul, keep in mind that Amazon sometimes runs price promotions on KU, such as deals on three-month and one-year subscriptions:
How does Kindle Unlimited stack up against Amazon Prime?
Readers may also be curious how Kindle Unlimited stacks up against Amazon Prime. Again, KU isn’t included in Prime — it’s an entirely separate service. But Prime does provide a similar option to KU in the form of Prime Reading. Prime Reading allows subscribers to borrow from a library of over 1,000 books, magazines, comics, and other works.
Is the Amazon Prime reading library worth it?
Yes, 1,000+ titles sounds like a lot — but compared to the 1,000,000+ Kindle Unlimited books, the Prime Reading library is actually pretty puny. Then again, you still might find its small mainstream pool preferable to KU’S vast ocean of indie books.
How many books can I read with Kindle Unlimited?
With the Kindle Unlimited Subscription you can access hundreds of thousands of Kindle books and thousands of audiobooks with Whispersync for Voice. You can keep up to ten books at a time and there are no due dates. Read your Kindle Unlimited books on any Amazon device, or free Kindle reading app.
