So I can buy an ePub ebook from Thalia.de and it will automatically appear on my Kindle if it is connected to the Internet?

And oddly enough, transferring books to your ereader using USB, SFTP, etc. from another local device is pretty much exactly what sideloading means. To quote from Wikipedia:

Quote:
Sideloading describes the process of transferring files between two local devices, in particular between a personal computer and a mobile device such as a mobile phone, smartphone, PDA, tablet, portable media player or e-reader.
