I believe that Amazon had to increase the pot because of all the new Kindle Fire owners who have a free month of Amazon Prime and expansion of the Kindle Owners' Lending Library into UK, Germany, and France. If they hadn't done that, the payment per borrow might have gone below their target and authors would leave the program in droves.

Would love to see some factual numbers on how this program is working out for small indy authors now.
