I do not have to convert or strip DRM or anything else.

So please quit telling people if they own a kindle, they must go to either Amazon or great lengths to put other books on a kindle.
I am not locked in. Never have been.

I will repeat myself, if you don't like Amazon don't shop there. Don't spread lies just because you don't like a company. It only makes the liar look bad.
Cin, this has come up before.

Being locked into an ecosystem doesn't refer to a device, it refers to content. Kindle books have to be read on a Kindle or Kindle app, for the average consumer who doesn't know Alf. That's all it ever meant; this has been explained before but you continue to attack people on this issue because of your persistent misunderstanding.

Do not, ever, call another member a liar. This is your only warning.
