It looks like Amazon are going to prevent Kindle users from downloading purchased books to transfer over USB.
I assume this is to stop people stripping the DRM from the files.
So now I'm looking at Kobo and trying to work out if their price-matching or VIP scheme is worth it.
(No need to reply to me saying how evil Amazon are, thanks.)
