Since I'm a Kindle reader, everything I bought from them was DRM-free so at least that was not a problem. After spending several frustrating hours on the site last night, I think I've got all of the books I had previously bought but not downloaded. Luckily, I only had about 30 books to download, mainly freebies. I usually downloaded my purchased items right away.

It's so sad that the authors are always the farthest down on the food chain when this happens and are the last to be paid. I know many people dislike Amazon, but at least when authors put their books up for sale there, they get paid a decent royalty rate promptly, with no middleman taking an extra cut, and have at least some assurance that Amazon is not going to suddenly go bankrupt. What a horrible end to the year for many authors!
