Books from Smashwords or gutenberg.org work on a Kindle without conversion.
It's a seriously bad idea to use Amazon's Cloud, or rely on it or download direct to Kindle.
ALWAYS download to PC (Windows, Linux or Mac, even a tablet / Phone is possible with a filemanager app and a microUSB to USB host adaptor, the Kindle looks like a USB memory stick to EVERY device that can take external USB memory) so you have a backup.
Do not give copies of stuff to Amazon's Cloud. Also Sync has privacy issues and can mess up collections/shelves etc.
