> Effective January 20, 2026, readers can download EPUB and PDF files of your DRM-free books from their Manage Your Content and Devices page on Amazon. Only verified purchasers who have bought your book can access the EPUB/PDF files. Customers who borrowed your books through Kindle Unlimited or other services can’t download the EPUB/PDF files, even if the books are DRM-free.

as long as its quicker and easier to dl a purchased book, than to manually transpose the digital book to a persistent file, i think it would be workable.

out of band P2P sharing .PDFz with non purchasers would be an issue with a truly DRM free setup.
