I agree that I don't understand what the problem is. You've legally purchased the book with DRM and you aren't removing the DRM. You're just enabling the Kindle to read what you've legally purchased. I don't understand USA antitrust laws but if Amazon was to purposely change the Mobipocket servers to not allow this it would seem to my naive understanding that they would be giving strong ammunition to a company like Fictionwise to lobby for an investigation.

They'd probably upgrade the servers with new features and accidentally break it because it wasn't in their test plan.
