Amazon bypasses Apple rules with Cloud Reader app

Amazon has launched a Kindle Cloud Reader app, just two weeks after it, along with other e-booksellers, was forced to remove links to its Kindle store from its native app by Apple. The company said the new tool could be used through Safari for iPad, Safari on desktops and Google Chrome browsers. Readers can access their e-books on or offline. The web app means customers can browse their Kindle books on the iPad and other devices and also make Amazon purchases from within the app. - The Bookseller
