minus-squareoatscoop@midwest.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up75arrow-down1·1 year agoI’ve taken to de-DRMing any e-books I bought from Amazon for that reason. Also, the “You can only view this book on 3 devices” – yeah … fuck off. Calibre + DeDRM plugin + KFX plugin. Perfectly legal too, as long as you aren’t distributing them.
minus-squareALostInquirer@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up31·1 year agoBtw, did you know of Weightless Books and Smashwords? They may not have as many ebooks as Amazon, but they do offer DRM free ebooks, and may be worth keeping in mind to check before going straight to Amazon.
