As for myself, I sideload everything, including books bought from the same store my current device is registered to (currently Kobo). No direct downloads to the device at all. YMMV.
For sure.

Personally for myself I am a bit ambivalent about the situation with my Keyboard Kindle, as I cannot remember when I last used it to read. It's been my primary download device, so now it has been made redundant. Obviously if I was to use it for ebooks not yet on it, I would have to sideload them, but can I be bothered.

In reality, the only reason I don't use it for reading, is because it doesn't have the substrate layer for lighting, and the pull-out cover light lights things unevenly. Other than that, and I would prefer it over my Paperwhite, due to page turn buttons.

All that said, I much prefer my Kobo Libra H2O ereader these days.
