This is... terrible news. This is primarily how I get books from the library. I found that if you keep the Kindle on Airplane mode and download + transfer them, they never expire.
Nothing malicious. I just can't read books arbitrarily in a 21 day period.
This will not affect you at all. They're not stopping allowing you to transfer books to your kindle over USB. They're stopping letting you download book files from Amazon.
From what the article says, that's doesn't appear to be true.
In order to download and transfer Kindle books from the Library, I have to first add them to "My Content" on Amazon, then from the Amazon interface click "Download & Transfer via USB". That's the only way to access the AZW3 files that get moved over to the Kindle.
