I suppose you are right, Amazon has banned downloading wordwise and x-ray for DRM-free books from the server end. Now I'm using
WordDumb plugin for calibre to generate wordwise and x-ray for my ebooks, it is easy to use and the effect is terrrific, you may take it a try.

I have checked some of the books from overdrive and only if when the said book showed up in my kindle content menu in servers the book downloaded x-ray and wordwise.
So I guess it is time for me to move on from using wordwise altogether. When I first started learning English, reading books with wordwise on was a tremendous help. Now, though, I do not need it that much anyway, but was using it as a habit. Also, the only reason for me to use kindles exclusively was wordwise and x-ray features I will not be able to use them now I might as well try kobo and nook devices.
