Kindle user, no Amazon account, only bought one book and own hundreds. Jailbreak your kindles or buy an android based ereader.
Or buy a Kobo instead and it just works. Bonus, no money to Amazon at all.
You don't even need to jailbreak them, just import them through a PC to your kindle or email them to your kindle email address.
Well see if its possible after an update
True, I'm ditching my Kindle as soon as I can. I already cancelled my Amazon account and will no longer support them
Thats a good idea, my next big spend will be an android ereader. Turning off WiFi on kindle limits so much functionality.
I'm going to see what I can do to crack my Kindle open for now, but yeah I'm done with Amazon.
~~Should definitely be. My mother has the Paper White 6" and I am able to transfer all my zlib EPUB and MOBIs through USB with no issues.~~
Nevermind, I think I misunderstood and you meant it more like, "We'll see how long they allow this feature"
(and for whatever reason strikethrough markdown isn't working...)
My Kindle email via way of calibre has not been working these past few weeks, returns some misk internal error from Amazon's end... :(
