I do not want my information crossed over and I do not want Amazon in my library activities - and Amazon effectively lost a sale of a new kindle.
Library book = store bought book = no difference. There's nothing sacrosanct about a library book. A book is a book is a book.

But what about Amazon?? WHY should Amazon have access to information that Kobo, Sony, B&N, BAEN, S&S, Hachette, Penguin, etc does not? WHAT makes Amazon such a special little snowflake that they deserve that kind of detailed activity that their competitors do not have access to??
Because they have Kindle format and Adobe doesn't.
