Yes, thanks, I know K4PC uses mobi.

That all said... I don't understand your issue here. Kindle 4 PC does NOT read epub.... so perhaps it isn't the DRM but the format. Your Kindle 4 PC books need to be mobipocket formated.

But thanks for your input. I make both types of files for clients for every book, so that they may sell on multiple platforms.

I'm really not interested, no offense, in debating the great DRM, anti-DRM issue. That's not my interest here; I'm looking to fellow wonks and wonkettes to see if any have run across this issue and if any have solved it. Thank you again.
