I just registered my old Kindle to AMAZON JP to read and download manga and it removed my entire backup classic-lit library.

Hundreds of books dating back to classical times, the Victorian and the Middle Ages.

Good thing I'm a pessimist and backed it up.


Ps By the way, the downloads stopping blurb in on the Japanese Amazon site too.
