Goodreads moves away from Amazon API for book data over restrictive terms of use

Social reading site Goodreads is changing the API it uses for pulling book metadata to the site. It had been using Amazon's public Product Advertising API which allowed it to import title, author, page count, and so on. However, Goodreads finds the terms of use for the API have become too restrictive for the site to continue to use it.
