I personally would rather pay for all my books and make sure the creator gets their cut But I was wondering does Amazon even pay the authors when someone checks out a book with KU?

Saw this and immediately thought about a scene from builders of dreams. I believe it is also mentioned a few times in the series before that. A confused throw away, something about it anyways
