    After May 20, users will only be able to use their devices to read content that’s already downloaded. Once an older device is deregistered or reset to factory settings, it cannot be re-registered after May 20.

    Which means: You can still read your books, but you are on borrowed time. If something goes wrong, you can’t access all the books you bought from Amazon in the last decades anymore with your current device. So jailbreaking makes sense and it is also important to crack the DRM on those books.

      Are we sure they don’t just mean that you can’t use the Amazon store to download new books? I know that is not what they literally write, but it is likely what they mean.
