Nothing enabled yesterday, today 1/21/26, I have 5 books out of the 20 on page one of MYCD that presented that option. All were published before 1/20/26.
Interestingly 2 of the 5 were KU books that I had purchased.
At this time there is nothing I can find on the book's amazon page that would let me know prior to purchase if the download other formats option is available.
All downloaded as a random named zip file that I had to rename to an epub file to load into calibre.
Metadata - all were unknown for author, all had covers and only one had a blurb.
Formatting - readable in calibre. Haven't had an opportunity to load one onto my kobo yet to confirm usage on other devices. I'm afraid to look under the hood and see how poor the coding is.
Next day off, I'll cruise through MYCD and see if any other older purchases are enabled.
Bottom line I'd still purchase elsewhere if available, as I dislike amazon for many reasons but especially the book error reporting tool.
For KU restricted books ot would be nice to know prior to purchasing if the other formats option would be available, but it ultimately wouldn't affect my purchasing decision.
YMMV in this amazon feature.
