  1. That is illegal in most countries. — Luckily not the one I live in.
  2. That won't make Amazons behaviour any better. My rant is not about rescuing my books but how Amazon treads me as a customer.
  3. Better buy at smashword or beam-ebooks save yourself the hassle and support shops which sell DRM free.

Knowing how to use MobiDeDRM does mean I forgive Amazon for treating Mobipocket customers like shit.
