After I bought the PW2 I got another group of these items, which I knew would happen, but I cannot delete them like I did for the Touch. Come to think of it, I might have already unregistered the Touch when I deleted them, so maybe Amazon locks these items as long as the related device is registered? Who knows. I would like to get rid of them as they do nothing but clutter up the page.
Jack, try doing this from YourMediaLibrary. It only moves the deleted items into your trashcan, but at least you can do a few items at once, instead of one by one.
I actually tried getting my trashcan removed on varius occasions, and they keep telling me it's not possible. I will email them about this separately.
Thing is, when something is on your trashcan, it is still searchable. I have hundreds of items in there that I just want gone. They were all freebies, so was told they can't even go the refund route, which is the only way to permanently delete items. When the kindle was first introduced, this approach would have been fine, but it is just not sustainable so many years later, with people's libraries the size of a whale.
