All purchased books. I checked the Amazon web page for an ebook I purchased in 2010, and at the top it said: "You purchased this item on October 12, 2010" and the links that followed included "view Your Books".

Oh geez. I feel really weirded out now. The page
is clearly labelled as beta and it appears to be a gradual rollout, so hopefully more people will see it soon — unless Amazon decides to kill it.

I think it's true that most Kindle customers don't use Download & transfer via USB, or even know what it is. I also think most Kindle customers don't care about DRM and are content inside the Amazon eco-system.
Honestly, if Download and transfer were removed, I would probably still buy from Amazon because I like Whispersync for Voice. But I would probably do more borrowing from my public library and reserve purchases (still from Amazon) for books either the library doesn't have or which I don't want to wait for or that I think I will read again, etc. I doubt I would switch to another bookseller at this point.
