My last version on XP worked on Wine on Linux, but they killed that.
The newer versions won't install on WINE. Since I discovered that the Kindle App on Android is "spyware" and took it off my phone and tablet I don't worry about the Kindle PC app not installing on WINE. I use a non-spying ePub reader on phone & tablet.
I use my real eInk Kindle's serial number in Calibre and read all Amazon eBooks on my Kobo H20 (original) or Sony PRS350. I preview on the Calibre eReader program on Linux.
Only a small percentage of my books are Amazon eBooks anyway. However Harlequin Barnes & Noble (Nook) are worse. They don't allow apps at all now? Aren't B&N nook ebooks now put on a hidden partition?
I support copyright, I don't "share" or "upload" copyright material, but I'm glad I don't live in USA with their toxic DRM & DMCA laws that are contrary to International Copyright conventions.
