Aamazon knows that it is you and the device belong to you so you can do this to up to 6 devices that could be include smartphone, tablet and computer with kindle app or kindle software installed. Things you can not share is a single book, Kindle active content title or subscriptions. But you can manage your existing Kindle library and change your subscription delivery options to different device through the Manage Your Kindle if you upgrade or change device. The most important things is meaning of  devices, does not mean current number of devices that you register on account because device could be deregistered and reregister unlimited. For example, I have 6 people in our family and each person own kindle or kindle app or software installed devices and they all love to read books. And all the devices has been register through one account (Not that you do not have to but why not since one paid book could be share by everyone up to 6 devices) Let's say, I purchased a book titled "How to kindle" from kindle store and all 6 people download and read book with their own 6 individual devices. So if I removed the book from my device for more space to put more book or simply reset the device, I could redownload the same book without the problem but if I deregister my kindle and bought new one and register on amazon to download the same book, I can not do it. Because deregister does not mean all the books in that device has been removed. You still can read  and keep all the books from the kindle or device that has been deregisted unless you remove the books manually yourself. That is reason amazon limit the number of devices to protect the copy right. If amazon does not have this policy, some people could let other people to download the same book from your account unlimited. Most time this problem does not happen unless you have a big family who loves to read or too many devices registered which is difficult to manage. I hope in future amazon will upgrade their website so we can see all the detail and transaction of each book to minimize this confusions. Now you have freedom to carry and read couple thousands books in anytime and anywhere with tiny device. Let's manage well to enjoy fullest.

As I was looking into the Kindle, the concerns raised on this blog post were helpful in making me ask questions that ultimately led me to purchase a Kindle. I figure that I owe it to the community to post the responses to the questions that I had. 1.)How many devices can I share each book on? While the standard is six, publishers have the right to restrict the DRM to fewer than six devices. 2. How do I know if the DRM is fewer than six? On the Amazon Kindle page when you are purchasing a book, if the publisher has restricted the book to fewer than six devices then you'll see the message "Simultaneous Device usage: Up to X simultaneous devices, per publisher limits" on the website detail page. - this is per Kindle customer service. 3. What if I need to upgrade one of my devices? -You would need to delete your books off of one of the devices and then deactivate it from your Amazon Kindle account. This should free up your DRM to put it on another device. 4. Can I lend my Kindle books? As of December 31, 2010, you can now lend your books to people with some restrictions. Ultimately, I chose the Kindle because Amazon was the only place that had the titles that I needed. Experience with device on day 2 has been very good and I feel this is a major improvement from paper. This blog was very helpful in making those who want to buy a Kindle more informed consumers.
