Follow these steps and it's 90 per cent likely that you will live a life untroubled by DRM. Cheers,
Yes, if the publisher has allowed, one can lend each book once for 14 days to someone with the same device as oneself. Not quite lending I we know it.

Yes, if one allows access to one's Amazon account, in the process allowing that person to buy books with your money, and to see and read all the books you've bought from Amazon. Not quite sharing as I know it.

Nice to see you admit that one can't take one's library with one to a different dedicated device. Not quite owning as I know it.

And on the contrary, it's at least 90% likely that one will be troubled by DRM at some time in the future, unless one never re-reads books, and always reads one's books as soon as one buys them.
