The books now look "normal" on my Kindle and I am enjoying reading them. Since this is the first time I have done this, what will happen at the 15th day to these 14 day rentals?

I'm assuming i have altered the DRM but not removed it by making the book Kindle readable.

Thanks

Your books will expire and you will not be able to open them on your Kindle. The one exception to this is that Kindle will not know they have expired unless you turn on Whispernet or hook your Kindle to your computer. So, if you're in the middle of a good book, don't do either of the above until you finish it!

cheers
