My experience - I use a Kobo, not a Kindle - is that ebooks available from outside the respective stores are usually available in multiple formats to accommodate different devices - e.g. Mobi for Kindle, ePub for Kobo, PDF for computer. Various publishers/authors provide ebooks in more than one format - see O'Reilly, SitePoint, LeanPub, etc. for examples.
All of that to say, you're not limited to Amazon (or an immediate store if using a different platform) for sourcing content.
