Buy books. But not from Amazon. Buy them from Bookshop.org, the independent site. This move by Amazon is shameful.

Here is a link to my book on Bookshop.org.

@officerripley @petergleick but can you gift them? That was the big showstopper for me, I need to gift a lot of digital books

I just checked their site and unfortunately, no, it's not possible to gift ebooks at this time. Maybe they'll add that later.

Cool! It would be so great to never have to use Amuhzon again. :-)
