I understand most of the other ones you inquire about, but why this one? (I just bought it for Kindle)
I'm less discriminating when it comes to Faithlife purchases. I'll pass on buying it if I can only get that price from Kindle.

Well, it does make you pause, as to whether it was David or his harp.

I am all things Apple, and my preference is for most all book purchases to be through Logos... However, if I am reading a book "cover to cover," Far and away my preference is for my kindle paperwhite.
The books I purchase from Logos which I want to read "cover to cover," I have to make a decision: Is there a substantial benefit to it being in Logos? if so, I rarely will purchase it elsewhere. If not, I buy it from Amazon so that I can read it on the Paperwhite. A dime novel, while enjoyable, falls into the Paperwhite category for me.

Quick question: It’s been a long time since I have bought a Kindle book—primarily because I could never figure out how (or even if) to copy & paste from Kindle works.
Is it possible to copy/paste from Kindle? If so I would really appreciate a link or tutorial on how to accomplish this.
Thank you in advance.

I don't know the answer, but I also don't fully understand your question. When you say "Kindle," do you mean the device, or the book? I know there used to be a limit to how much you could copy from a kindle book but I have no reason to keep up with those things.
This question, however, is really beyond the scope of the Logos Bible Software forums.

I think it may depend on the device/app you are using and possibly even on the jurisdiction you're in - in treating-copyright-very-publisher-friendly Germany I have no direct way at all to copy/paste from the kindle cloud reader, not even to save a browser page as html text, but I can simply copy a small chunk of text from the kindle app for PC and paste this someplace (it will even generate a citation source line, a bit like Logos does, but without all the fancy stuff and also without footnotes). This may be different where you live.
Example (referring to WW I in case you wondered) :
The assumption of religious leaders in England and the United States was that war would advance the ideals of Christianity and democracy. More than that, it would give birth to an epoch of peace and righteousness: the “last battle” before the dawn of a new world. Whatever the religious beliefs of the combatants, the secular idealism of the Myth was driving attitudes and expectations about the conflict’s outcome. The problem, of course, was that none of these holy predictions would come to pass. The gulf between the prophecies of the clergymen and the realities of the conflict would overshadow many souls in the postwar generation. Paul Bull, a minister and former chaplain, spoke for many of them: “The Age of Progress ends in a barbarism such as shocks a savage. The Age of Reason ends in a delirium of madness.”67

Yes you can. I use an Android tablet and it's certainly possible.

I live in Oregon so not sure how or if that would be an issue. I use Apple devices & I’m referring to the app. and/or books purchased from Amazon (forgot to include that info.).
However, based on your quotation above it looks like copy/paste from Kindle books are now in-tow👍.
I have many works in Kindle that have been just sitting in the app. for years now because I couldn’t copy/paste. The last time I tried there was a limit on how much I could paste but appears to have been changed.
Good to know. Appreciate the input.

Gotcha’ Paul. I have many times wished I would’ve started my “tech. revolution“ with Android contra Apple.
But, wouldn’t want to go “beyond the scope“ of Logos products (😏) and hijack your thread.
God bless!

I second that. Looks like an interesting read for $1.99, but not for 11.99.

It's frustrating that Christian book publishers are apparently excluding/forgetting Faithlife.
