Note that you should never send a 3rd party Document via Amazon conversion (use Calibre + USB) or to Amazon's cloud (use USB) as that probably contravenes Copyright and may also contravene the originator's rights (existing EU law and new GDPR from 23 May 2018).

It's just as legal as making a copy on your hard disk provided you don't use it to share with friends.

Cite if you have seen a legal opinion.

Are you talking about KU (Kindle Unlimited)? The owner has to sign up for both KU and Prime Reading so it's up to them. Swings & Roundabouts.

Full disclosure, I am on a low rate KU trial and have already bought authors whose other books I have borrowed.
