Any company can and will change their business. It's progress, and it will happen. I would bet a steak dinner that in 20 years (2030) there will be no Kindle. Amazon (if it's still called that) will have been bought and sold a few times, and all of this a distant memory.....

As I said before, bottom line .... learn to strip DRM. Without the DRM it really does not matter where you bought the book from, because it will then be YOUR book.
I haven't learned how to remove DRM yet. I'm on an apple computer and most instructions I find are for PC. For now I download all my Kindle book purchases to my computer and save the .mobi file on my hard drive. I figure eventually I can remove the DRM if I ever need to remove it.
