Sheesh. Perhaps you should made your comments a year ago when this thread was new?
As it is, perhaps the question you should be asking is why would the OP want to make those books available via calibre's server? If the users are part of an Amazon household plan, they would be able to download the books from Amazon themselves. The alternative is that they do not have the right to access those books for themselves so putting those books up for others to download would indeed be copyright violation.
Though I find it rather humourous that you appear to believe that sharing books obtained from another store (Kobo, Google, Apple, B&N, Bol, etc.) would somehow be less repugnant than sharing books obtained from Amazon.
