Simultaneous Device Usage: Unlimited

The thread Two Trilogies on Kindle links to several AZW ebooks and I noticed for the first time that under Product Details they are all marked:
Quote:
Simultaneous Device Usage: Unlimited
I have not seen this before, but I spot checked about half a dozen DRM-free AZW ebooks and almost all of them now have this entry. "Unlimited" definitely means DRM-free. In other words you can rename these files .mobi (or .prc) and read them on any device that supports MOBI. There might still be DRM-free AZW's that are not marked "Unlimited", my spot checking was not definitive but seemed to suggest that this might be the case.

Looks like I've already added Karma to you too recently, but thanks for the news.
