If you can manage to download your ebooks to your PC, you can use Calibre with a DeDRM plugin to release your Amazon ~~hostages~~ books. But it's not a very straightforward process.

Calibre can handle a directly plugged in Kindle, no need to copy them to your PC first. I deDRMd them, then was able to just plug in my Kobo and copy all my books to the new device.
