Isn’t the simpler solution to not care?

I’d rather just pay to read books from Amazon right on my Kindle than go through the rigamarole of pirating all my epubs and PDFs.

In 16 years of Kindle ownership I’ve never once been like dang I wish I had an offline backup of that.

Very simple. Maybe the simplest comment I've seen on this site.

Thank you. I try to not make things more complicated than they need to be.
