I was slow to this realization and would buy from Amazon just because that was the link I happened on. Bad choice, I realize now that I tend to go for the direct download and skip the interim download-to-computer-and-import-into-Calibre step. I'm not worried about either Kobo or Kindle doing a midnight flit and I'll future-proof my purchases if it becomes necessary; doesn't seem worth the bother now. But there are still those pesky books bought back in the day where I need to jump through the hoops to get 'em on my Kobo. Lesson learned.

I can agree with that. BTW...I just took the time to look up and follow the instructions to put my Kindle app back to the supported version, and reset up caliber etc. I had 3 or 4 false starts....go look up something again...etc. Took about an hour for this veteran computer expert who already had some familiarity with this process.
Still...now that I have it setup (again) and he auto update turned off....it should be back to being a very easy process. Until Amazon stops allowing this version of the Kindle app (which may never happen)
