I predict this will be the new ebook acquisition method that replaces using Download And Transfer, outdated Kindle devices, Kindle For PC, Android hacks, and the other methods that are (were) common at one time.

Just my prediction of where things might go from here. We'll see if I'm right as time rolls on...
If that's what we end up having to do, then it's time to leave Amazon and go buy your eBooks at Kobo, eBooks.com, Google Play Books, and other sites that serve up ePub with Adobe DRM.
