Pdurrant is attempting to at least make Amazon think about it.

Personally I think we need laws, I just don't expect them any time soon.
I agree. There should be a clear policy.
Worthwhile to remember there are other options to back up books and music, digital video is a particular problem that I see no solution for, which is why I quit buying digital video at Amazon. The core of this issue, to me at least, is owning/controlling digital purchases no matter what Amazon does with customer accounts. The more customers who end up with closed accounts and trouble accessing their purchased digital content, the more it convinces me not to buy anything digital from Amazon that I cannot personally store and save. Google offers a back up for up to 1,000 books and 50,000 songs for free.
