Assuming that you are keeping all the DRM free .epub files, you should have as much of
the future covered as possible. Converting to read on your Kindle should not be much
of a chore. It looks like you are set as far as the tools and skills needed to face changes
in the future.

Unless, Amazon tightens its DRM and gains control of the supply of manuscripts through
exclusive contracts. That is more of a threat to publishers and authors, in the long run,
than to us consumers, but it would not bode well for us either.

As you yourself demonstrate buying a Kindle, or any other device, need not "lock you
into" a particular ebook provider. Convenience need not rule our lives, anything can be
taken too far. Those who sell their soul for a little convenience may live to regret it at
some point.

Luck;
Ken
