Harry, I am not a lawyer so I can not say if it was in their right. But the way Amazon is approaching this is all wrong from a customer's view. Had they contacted each purchaser, explained the situation first, then perhaps this situation would not have garnered the attention it has now.

Amazon routinely delete content from Kindles. Everybody who buys a Kindle knows this - or does if they bother to read their user agreement. You sound as though it's a big surprise. It really isn't, you know.

It is not a big surprise that people do not read UA's (or ignore them). Look at all the people who use Facebook and have given all rights away.
Amazon's absolute control without any user consideration is another reason why I would never purchase a Kindle.
