With the release of Kindle for PC 1.19, it is highly probable that it will soon only be possible to download non-KFX files if you have a pre-PW2 Kindle. This means that if you only have a Kindle newer than a PW1, you will not be able to remove DRM or convert your books to other formats.

Will this affect your ebook buying habits? Do you expect to go to vendors other than Amazon to get your books, and if so, what vendors will you use?
I'd more than likely buy far less than I do now. When a new format comes along I "buy" a freebie and test it out to see if I can really make it mine. If I cannot, then sayonara.

I will more than likely continue to read what I own on my kindle but definitely be relying more on Overdrive and borrowing in the future. It's not like I have too few books to read I have hundreds from MR and PG alone still waiting for (re) reading.

I've been less fussy about the cost of books (my max price is more flexible depending on the book) due to my ability to secure them as genuinely my own. My buying is always influenced by my ability to free it and store it on calibre.
