Am I right in thinking that the "lets me download them to PC" bit is going to be stopped? Or is this only being halted as an option on the Amazon site itself (at least at present)?
Only Download and Transfer from the website is stopping on the 26th. You can carry on doing what you're doing, at least until Amazon change the DRM scheme again. The change on the 26th won't affect you.
