You can say it. you'd be wrong. try scanning it and pasting it in its entirety on a public web site. it is ineither case a matter of being granted some rights and denied others.

I'm just saying that if you want to play by the rules there's no way you can get eBooks purchased on Amazon onto another eReader - that's fact.

it would be a fact even without drm if the user agreement says you can only do certain things. if the agreement violates our rights then its void with or without drm. there are plenty of other threqds here were we go into detail on that. not here please.

I'm for no one eReader, just that people should be able to use the eBooks they purchase on any eReader they decide to use. This is a real issue for those that wish to leave and/or join the Amazon eBook and/or Kindle community.

its not an issue unless the community say it is and i don't see them complaining. once again, this is my point.

If I own a Kindle and purchased my books from Amazon's eBook store and later decide to buy a Kobo/Nook/Sony eReader then please explain to me how I can get the books I purchased onto those other devices without breaking the law or the agreement that was made to Amazon and the publisher when I purchased the eBook?

the same is true if kobo nook sony owners want to buy a kindle. unless you warn them too then you are just spreading FUD about amazon.
