It's still a bit of a pain, you may need to intentionally downgrade your version of the Amazon for Kindle app to an older version where the tools can break the encryption. But it can be done.

- input_sh 7y agoThe pain kinda disappears if you have a physical Kindle. You enter the serial number once during setup of the plugin, then download the books from amazon.com/myk ("Download & transfer via USB" option), and just drag-and-drop downloaded files into Calibre's interface. Works on Ubuntu too, which is really a PITA otherwise.
