Thanks for all the info. But am an oldie and that's too.much for me now. 10 years ago maybe.
Am having to find a book I like in Amazon then checking if its in kobo. Sometimes ended buying it twice
So wondering about just buying a kindle love my kobo but not enough Selection at the minute.
Kindles are dear though.

If you still have your old Kindle, you can always use it to download your Amazon purchases, copy them with DRM removal to calibre and then use caliber to convert and send them to your Clara Colour. See the Dealing with Kindle ebooks in calibre thread for more information.

It's not worth it if you know how to remove the DRM and convert.

But if you can't or won't remove the DRM from Amazon ebooks, then the only way to read them is to use the Kindle app on a computer or a phone, or buy a Kindle.
