Absurd. Glad I have a Kobo.
I know I switched ages ago but I've never managed to port my existing library of ebooks off the kindle
Do you want help?
It's been a while since I tried it but from memory I had managed to extract the device keys from my kindle for DeDRM and then it wouldn't decrypt the files with them
The guide the other user commented looks pretty good, better than the one i followed. lol
If you run into issues let us know.
I did it a little while ago. Was very easy. Download books with kindle app, load them into Calibre and use a one click plugin to strip the DRM. I think this was the step-by-step I used.
