I love how the Amazon cloud works with my music, that I spent better part of a week uploading to the cloud (my family still talks about the slow internet during that time). I understand movies (Mp4) won't play on the Fire, so there is no reason to upload them.

I would like to upload my books. However, they have all had DRM removed. They might have been bought from Amazon or been free from Amazon, or from another source. I am paranoid about uploading these to the Amazon cloud. I know that their business model would be absolutely crushed if they went snooping in the stuff people stored (although I would imagine they might screen for child pornography, terrorist plans). Am I being too paranoid?
