It hasn't taken a single thing from me. I buy a considerable amount of books from Amazon, and despite the apparent "takeover" of the kfx format, I've yet to buy, download, or read a single Amazon book in the kfx format. Not one. So why do I care about its inability to be converted to other formats again? Kfx continues to be a non-factor for those who place a high value on archiving and/or converting their purchases. And it will continue to be so until there are no easy end-runs around kfx.
Contrast that with the many Topaz books that got foisted upon me over the years (with no way to avoid getting them without going to another retailer).
