If yes, what is the reaction of amazon ? Do they remove those titles from your kindle in each update or not?
thanks a lot
If the Mobi is DRM-free then yes. I *think* MobiPocket.com (which was purchased by and is owned by Amazon) is the only seller of non-Kindle DRM mobi content. You wouldn't want to buy from them because their prices are very high).

Mobi books from Smashwords, Fictionwise (multi-format), Feedbooks, Baen, etc are DRM-free (in my experience).

Amazon doesn't care. They do not remove titles from your Kindle. It was a one time deal and it was for a book purchased at Amazon not from elsewhere.
