With the greatest of respect, you can't be looking very hard.

To state that it is a simple matter for a non-Kindle user to buy and use a book from Amazon site is disingenuous. One must strip the DRM and then convert the mobi to an epub. This is not a simple process for someone who did not have a career in IT like you, Harry T. Why do you insist on ignoring this obvious fact?

From another angle, am I right in thinking that Amazon is making it very difficult for non-Kindle users to buy e-books from Amazon? Can a Sony or a Kindle connect to the Amazon site and buy a book and load it *directly* onto their e-reader? No, they can't.

On the other hand, I presume that a non-kobo / Sony can connect to their respective sites and purchase a book. Is that correct? If this is the case, Amazon is discouraging platforms other than the Kindle. If I'm wrong about this, please let me know.
