In my experience, and my experience is limited: Lit is the easiest format to circumvent. Closely followed by .mobi.

What I've been doing (and everyone's going to laugh at me) is purchasing in .lit format. Downconverting those using ConvertLit and then format shifting those files to non DRM'd .mobi using Calibre. I end up with a file that is mostly correctly formatted, doesn't freeze up my device when it hits something my reader can't parse, and displays nicely on my EZ Reader. I'm sure there's an easier way to do this (I could just buy the file in .mobi and use the scripts), but this works for me so this is how I do it. I don't necessarily recommend my method for anyone else.
