Well, many of us already have Kindles registered to our Amazon accounts, even if we usually read on another brand. So we'd not have to spend anything.
And, how would you be encouraging a giant like Amazon to do anything? They wouldn't notice a tiny minority no longer buying. So it's only your own scruples you'd satisfy, Amazon doesn't care one way or the other. You can't encourage someone to do something if that someone is not even aware of your existence.
