It seems like my only options going forward are to hope that the existing KFX methods keep working, drop the series, or be okay with only having DRM copies that I can't control which is unfortunate.

It is considered a bad practice in these parts to remove DRM from KU books, as the KU payment model relies on the number of pages read, which can only be accounted for when reading the book online and as downloaded on the device from the Amazon servers; stripping DRM from KU books effectively prevents authors from being paid their fair share.
