This might be one of those questions nobody wants to risk having codified as a strict law or rule, but follow a “reasonable man" approach.
- Publishers are unlikely to want Amazon or BN to give us stated permission to share our purchases with anyone we allow to download from our account, without any limits.
- Purchasers are likely to protest if Amazon officially threatens to enforce the level of restrictions the publishers want.
- Amazon is probably somewhere in the middle, preferring not to have to draw and enforce a hard line.
I read two things in the last few days that, if true, would seem to be Amazon's tightening things:
1. We can no longer register a kindle by simply entering its serial# from the MYK page.
2. Books downloaded from one account are only readable while the device is registered to that account, even on kindle devices, not just apps (?... I have two accounts and would check, but not sure which came from what account or have been cleaned...)
