I have a recent Paperwhite, and you can still do the drag and drop thing with it. The Kindle shows up as a device on your computer, and you just need to get the files into the documents folder on it.

I can't remember off the top of my head if you can skip the setup with a new Kindle and not make an Amazon account.
