I don't see why this should be any different from any other kind of inheritance.

When you die, your property goes into your estate. Eventually, the estate gets distributed among the beneficiaries -- whether those specified in your will, or, if you didn't make a will, according to the law in the relevant state or country. It doesn't matter what Amazon or anyone else write in their terms and conditions. They can't override the rights of the beneficiaries.

Of course, they'll be practical difficulties, like the question of passwords. But those don't affect the legal situation.
