Kindle DRM Bites Users
Submitted by Great Western Dragon on June 22, 2009 - 9:37am
Hypothetical situation.
You have a Kindle and you buy an e-book. How many times can you download that e-book? In other words can you download it to your Kindle once, but if you replace your Kindle can you download it again?
You don't know?
Well, turns out, Amazon doesn't either. And since the number of times that you can download varies from publisher to publisher and book to book, well, you can start to see the problem.

Kindle downloads multiple times
I have two Kindle's and you can download the same book to both even though I only paid for it once. I am not surprised by Amazon's ignorance because they are one of the worst managed companies in history.
