If I did not have them in my calibre library, I damn well would have screamed more loudly than just reporting the issue to Amazon.

My personal opinion is more on the lines of Hanlon's razor.
I fully understand your point of view.

I had a Kobo before for a number of years, so all my ebooks are in the ePub format. If they were to be missing from my Kindle, I would scratched my head hard. I haven't noticed yet if it ever happened to me. I tend to delete books I don't like.

I'm trying to understand why it can happen. So far, people are mostly pointing to wifi being off, and a synch problem. Could be. But then, it should happen with any ebooks on the Kindle, not only sideloaded one ?
