It didn't used to be this way - I was a happy Kindle user for years. But recently it has been, and it's only getting worse.
Amazon is making so when you nobody has a pre-2024 Kindle and the Android hack no longer works, nobody will be ale to get purchased eBooks from Amazon other then via WiFi to a Kindle. And DRM will not be able to be removed.
