Just seen this thread. I must admit that when Amazon started playing games with the updating of K4PC it became clear that they were going down this sort of path and I decided to avoid buying ebooks from them.

I think I've bought one fiction book and three technical books for work, from them in the last year or so, that I couldn't find elsewhere. The rest of the books I've bought have been epubs from Kobo or ebooks.com. It's not a protest so much as it is me reducing the amount of hassle in my life.

My guess is that they will continue to chip away at the ways you can download the old formats until they're ready to retire them. They will know exactly how many kindles of what type are downloading what types of file and when the numbers get low enough...
