Hmmmm, there's seems to be something missing here. I may be mistaken, but I do think there is a way to do it....maybe someone here can better elaborate (I'm not the most tech-saavy guy...heck I still don't read ebooks myself). I was sure some of my readers are doing conversions from Kindle.
In any case, right now our plans are to revert all books given to Amazon for their exclusive period back to a wider distribution as soon as the initial exlusive period is over. So even if you can't convert it, the book should be available within 90 days.
I know that's not ideal, but like I had mentioned, there is a fair bit of money involved and unfortunately or fortunately, no one has the access like Amazon does to customers.
On the plus side, you will see more of our books being offered for free through Amazon (and I'll try to plan them better so I can also announce the date of the promos in the newletter I send out). So if you can figure out a way to convert these, you'll have access to more freebees--not that that should actually stop you from actually buying some of our books
I have also asked BN for clarification of the re-download issue, lets see what they say.
Cheers,
