While thinking about how Kindle works, this situation came to my mind: what if the account owner dies?

In case of the regular books they will become a part of an estate.

What about Kindle books? Will heirs be able to inherit them and just use them like the original owner? Or the access to the account will cease as the password vanishes in the deceased parson's head?
