Most Kindle books are available in multiple formats from Amazon. The particular format delivered in each case depends on what is supported by the app or device receiving it. For those books avoiding KFX is a matter of choosing a destination or delivery method that does not support KFX. Methods for doing that are documented in the first post of this thread.

There is a limited set of books that Amazon only makes available in KFX with the latest unbroken DRM. Those are mainly expensive textbooks and books in some specific languages or published for specific markets.
