Has anyone here ever thought about what will happen to their ebooks after 10 to 20 years in the future? I started reading and purchased a few kindle books already..then this thought just came to me. What if Amazon decides to shut down maybe 20 years from now..then what will happen to the ebooks I purchased? What if they decide not to continue their kindle line anymore?

How often do you reread a book?
Should be able to rip out the drm and back them up. Used to do that with audible audio books
Yes, this is why I do not buy my ebooks from Amazon.
Most people wouldn’t keep their physical copies after 20 years. Even if they did consider the fee of having kindle is you don’t have to pack and move your books every time you move. Ive had a small library of books I’ve lost,thrown away, given away etc. All because I couldn’t afford to move with them. Space issues. With audible books or kindle none of that is ever an issue
