The change also means that people who own other e-readers will be able to buy a Kindle and transfer all their existing e-books over much more easily than before. Some smaller publishers have even made it a selling point – promising authors a larger share of the sale if customers buy directly from them. Publishers are now more regularly selling e-books directly to consumers, often for less than Amazon and other big digital booksellers might charge. The change, first spotted by Good E-Reader, will make it much easier for Kindle owners to read books they have not bought directly from Amazon. However, the 'Send to Kindle' service will automatically convert ePubs into Kindle-friendly files. The Kindle still can't natively load ePub files, so connecting the e-reader to a computer and manually copying ePub files over is still not an option. Users will be able to get ePub e-books onto their Kindles either by emailing the ePub files to their device, or using one of the 'Send to Kindle' apps. 'Beginning in late 2022, Send to Kindle applications will support EPUB (.EPUB) format,' Amazon states on its updated 'Send to Kindle' help page.
