Hi again, this short little thing is going to be a short email on places to buy DRM Free EBooks. Because Amazon has taken away the ability for people to...
Not going to tear down my de-drm setup any time soon. But optimistic I might be able to before amazon does it for me.
As far as I’m aware it’s now too late for that. Amazon has removed the ability to download ebooks to your computer meaning the only way to access azw files now is if you’ve found a way to rip them out of the Kindle memory (not possible using normal means, but maybe if you’ve cracked one open and probed the flash memory directly).
I used to de-drm all my kindle purchases using the manual download links Amazon had, but those have now been removed. That’s actually what prompted me to switch to Kobo. I’m not going to “purchase” a book I can’t create a backup of.

If you own a kindle reader you can just connect it via usb and dedrm the kfx files.
No you can’t. They changed the firmware so eBook downloads now go into a partition that’s not accessible when mounting the kindle over USB.
