Because, I had a collection sync error: In the library on "Content Library", 50 books were still in collection A. But when syncing to my Kindle device, only 10 books were in the collection, and the remaining 40 books were in the uncollected section. |

For Kobo users, NickelSeries adds the series/series index and subtitle if they are in ePub3 or calibre format. All other metadata such as multiple authors, word and page count, estimated reading times, collections, etc. require that second connection to calibre after the import process has created the database entry for the book.

Either send them as PDOC KFX, or make sure to let the Kindle go online every week or two. If it's offline for an extended time then the Kindle will do a clean up of every EBOK that doesn't align to a real Kindle Store book.

Or keep it always offline. Then it can't do any cleanups.

If you don't want Amazon deleting your ebooks, then deny Amazon access 24/7/365. There's no better way, actually. |

I used to subscribe to KU when I could "Download&Transfer". But since you can't do that anymore with KU, I don't subscribe to KU anymore.
I don't read very fast, and KU was never a bargain for me at full price. I could buy the books outright for cheaper than I could rent them (buying one of two a month at $2.99 or $3.99 each was cheaper than KU at $9.99 a month for those same books). KU would go on sale sometimes, and I'd use that to convince myself that KU was still a bargain. But then they changed KU so you had to allow Amazon free reign to access your Kindle. At that point I determined that KU was not a bargain at any price. I understand why Amazon did that to KU, to prevent theft. I have no disagreement with that. But the side effect of allowing Amazon into my Kindle at their whim was too much for me to bear. We see some of the results of allowing Amazon access to your Kindle. If you occasionally shut them out for too long with airplane mode, when you finally let them back in again they retaliate by deleting some of your books. Others may be OK with that, but I am not. If to sync your reading positions or use X-Ray or some other feature you have to make a deal with the devil allowing him to delete your books, I'm not going to make that deal. |

They don't make long enough spoon handles for me to use KU.
