That's a very interesting idea. It would undercut one of the most common objections to DRM (at least in many people's minds). I'm not sure I like a solution that favors one vendor (Amazon) so heavily, but I could see something like this working for many people.

I'd want to see much better guarantees about long-term access to content before they'd get my money, though. Especially after hearing about the expiring access to PDF files.
