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
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.

The guide the other user commented looks pretty good, better than the one i followed. lol
