What stands out

  • Its median reviews are 1% of the parent category Movies & Video (183), one of the easier corners under it.
  • Its review barrier is lower than in 95% of Kindle eBooks categories: the median best seller has only 2 reviews, so new books can chart with few.
  • Prices spread wide: the middle half runs from $3.99 to $12.24, so budget editions and premium or boxed sets sell side by side.
