I agree that it is a stretch. I think classifing eBooks that can be read by a device as audio books is a strech as well.

My initial post asked "who's right is it?" My overall position was simply that regardless of the merits of copyright law (or contract law as you pointed out) that Amazon is within their right to side with their suppliers and turn off TTS. (Personal attacks aside, I also thought Jon had a good arguement about that giving consumers the right to remove DRM -- realizing that this position hasn't been tested in court yet.)
