Amazon won't let me download an ebook from its website unless I either have a registered Kindle or I have Amazon software installed on my computer. I don't own a Kindle and I do not want to install Amazon software on my PC. I can't verify that installing such software won't permit Amazon to rummage through my personal data when it wants or cause other problems (perhaps a conflict with software that I regularly use). If Amazon simply wants to sell me ebooks, it could make it so that I could buy the ebooks and download from Amazon just as I can from Kobo and Barnes & Noble. I don't have any B&N apps or Kobo apps on my computer but am able to buy and download ebooks from them.
