Title: Planned obsolescence
Product review: My kindle is in immaculate condition--screen protectors, never out of the case, never off of my night-stand. One day, a massive screen glitch appears in the top left-hand corner of the screen that prevents reading. Now I have a over a year's worth of digital content rendered useless unless I purchase a new device. Naturally, it's out of warranty by 2 months, so Amazon will not replace the kindle, but assures me that the information I have given them will help them improve kindles in the future. This is little consolation considering all my digital purchases are illegible. I will not be purchasing a replacement, and I will never buy "digital" books again. The DRMs prevent you from owning the material and every book you buy is dependent on a machine that will probably break down a few short months after the warranty expire, coercing you to buy another over-priced reading device. My advice after 14 months of use--buy books and avoid the e-book scam.
