Here are some pictures to compare what you get in the US version and what you get in the non US version.

Here is the US version of the link I sent in my latest post:

Hi again!

I realized that there are also ebooks not being available to US customers but available to European ones. LOL

Strange.

The other strange thing is that I sideloaded the Merriam-Webster dictionary to the Kindle Keyboard and when I open the book description it shows:

Not available for this device

Available on these devices only: Kindle, Kindle Voyage, Kindle Paperwhite, Kindle Paperwhite (5th gen.)

Though the dictionary works on Keyboard as well. LOL

And the message works on a Keyboard device also.
At least there is some consistency there, somewhere.

Hi!
Just a quick reply:
Some of those apps (from US account) are now available again for purchasing.

Hi again!

I have recently realized that there is no more Active Content from Amazon. Why did they delete this type of content altogether, why didn't they make them available as free programs?

Also the thumbnails of active contents in my library account have disappeared.

This was removed some time ago. The only way to get it back is to install an earlier firmware for your device that still supports it.
