The Comixology website is closing down. You'll need to use the app or the Amazon website in future. Comixology accounts are being merged with Amazon's.

I wonder what this means for the DRM-free backup program. Will that be moved to the Kindle page or just shuttered completely?
Yeah, based on this, it will be on Kindle.

Only 114 views? Should've had more than that after 24 hours. This thread isn't getting the attention it should be getting, considering how big this news is. I posted it in Independents because it affects ALL comics publishers, but maybe I should've posted it in the Marvel section, which is the most popular?
The only thing i care about right now is if my books will transfer and i will still be able to read them. That will be a major deciding factor for me how i approach digital and what avenue forward as it might just be more beneficial to put a little more work in and go direct to the manufacture website if they offer such a service. Secondly if there are ads put on the app that is a no go for me unless it is somehow reflected in a deduction of the price. Beyond that i have to see how friendly the app itself is as i can get annoyed real quick. Looking at Panasonic+ and the lack of an option to go back to the show your currently watching to see the episodes so you have to go all the way out and sometimes search again because it will start you on the wrong episode depending on how you closed out or if you got a server error.

I can say from experience that linking my Comixology account to my Amazon account was a totally seamless process. The only thing that changed was my log in information. It's a feature that's been available for years, so it's probably the one part of this transition that should go as smoothly as possible.

Not everyone uses comixology. If it's as simple as logging into Amazon instead of comixology then people probably don't see any hassles.
