Amazon does not stop launching new services and it is best to try and fail fast rather than fail slow and with millionaire debts. The new Amazon service is intended for the smallest of the house. This service it's called Amazon Rapids and try to make the little ones start reading through mobile devices, whether they are mobile phones or phablets.
For this it is necessary that such device has a messaging program. Usually SMS is used but it is not ruled out that another type of service such as WhatsApp or Facebook Messenger can be used.
Amazon Rapids will be distributed via sms for the little ones
Thus, users of this new service will receive readings and images of stories and stories via SMS. Somewhat similar to the sample chapter services, but Amazon Rapids will not offer unfinished stories but novels or finished stories. Also, although Amazon Rapids will be distributed via mobiles and phablets, the literary level will not decrease, that is, we will not find abbreviations that are not understood neither will accents or commas be lacking. They will follow the norm as Amazon Rapids seeks to offer readings to the little ones. Amazon Rapids costs $ 3 a month. It works in a similar way to Kindle Unlimited, however the catalog of works is smaller than in the latter.
Streaming services aimed at children are getting smaller and smallerBut this does not mean that there is no market for it. Perhaps the change of platform from eReader to mobile is what the little ones need to read more and read through electronic devices. In any case, I don't know if parents really trust their little ones with mobile phones so that they can read via SMS. But the most striking thing is that Amazon Rapids could expand to other services such as WhatsApp or Google Allo What do you think?
