Kindle Is Making It Harder to Switch to Rival eReader Brands

Need to download and transfer those old Kindle purchases? Tough luck.

On February 26th, Kindle customers will lose the ability to download eBook purchases directly to their PC. If you want to switch to a rival eReader brand in the future, I suggest that you use the soon-to-be discontinued “Download and Transfer via USB” feature to archive your Kindle library.

    The librarians I’ve talked to simply don’t know how any of this works. I’ve been told 3 times (the 3rd one today) that epub version of books are not available. Today it was a “trained computer aid that offers technology assistance” saying the epub format I download just last week is not available from the library.
