You have to admit, this is a pretty amusing coincidence - at the request of publishers, Amazon is pulling some books out of their collection:

In doing so, however, Amazon has also pulled them off of Kindles its customers own, and who had already purchased the books in question. Pogue notes a complaints page where Amazon users have begun posting confused messages, trying to figure out why their e-books have disappeared.

The reason it's ironic? The books being pulled are by Orwell - 1984, Animal Farm, etc :)
