Looked up why: “On Wednesday [Feb. 26th], Amazon will permanently remove a key Kindle feature: the ability to download and transfer copies of books to your computer. Amazon spokesperson Jackie Burke confirmed the removal of this feature in a statement to CNET.”
🚨🚨If you use kindle, Download your books before Amazon removes the ability next week. That is your money you spent and those are your books. 🚨🚨
