Uploading* an epub2 from Calibre to Amazon results in Amazon claiming Advanced Typesetting!

However Download to PC and transfer via USB is prefered by people I know and myself as then it's AZW/KF8. The direct download via 3G or WiFi seems to result in the KFX. It has DRM even when publisher has set DRM free. It's an evil DRM & structure compared to azw/mobi designed to lock you to Amazon Cloud instead of your own backups and being able to replace broken Kindle. Amazon can and does delete/block accounts.

The visual difference in most books seem slight. It seems like marking spin to justify an even more evil proprietary format.

(* I mean upload to KDP to publish, not Send to Kindle, which seems like a Googlesque scheme for Amazon to get copies, please use USB/Sideload as giving Amazon a copy may violate copyright. They are not simply forwarding to your Kindle.)
