If you can buy EPUB books, and then have access to the actual file, it's pretty trivial to then convert that to the Kindle format. However the problem I've had is even getting to the actual file.
I don't seem to have the problem you have. I use Calibre with the un-DRM plugin so if I buy books from Amazon they are converted automatically to mobi and I back them up. I've bought thousands of good books on DVDs from e-bay sellers and have even bought a book from Barnes and Noble and un-DRM'd it and converted it to mobi ... so I'm really no seeing the problem. There seems to be a hack available to make any format work OK. Oh - I never have the Kindle wi-fi turned on - if I buy a book I download the file to my desktop ....
