Amazon Removes Yaoi From Kindle Store
Digital Manga announced that Amazon removed a number of the company's yaoi and boys-love titles from the Kindle e-book store. Among the titles removed were Weekend Lovers and King of Debt from the company's 801 Media line, and The Color of Love from their June label.
The Yaoi Review (via Anime News Network) reports that Yaoi Press had manga and prose removed from the store. Yaoi Press founder and publisher Yamila Abraham stated that the company will have to alter the titles for sale on the Kindle. Digital Manga has no plans to alter its Kindle content, and commented that "Amazon does sell the print editions of these titles, which seems to make [removing the e-book versions] a contradiction to their business practice."
There are still number of explicit comics featuring heterosexual affairs on the Kindle store, as well as a large amount of erotic written work.
