Well, in the case of the B&N stuff, they really have made it the easiest to handle now. It's a point-and-click widget thing where you just press buttons to tell it to process the things you want processed.
You don't even have to install PyCrypto anymore, which seemed to be the hardest part for most people to grasp. The only real difficulty left is that there's no batch option, so you kind of have to do it one book at a time.
I don't see any way these "eBook Converter" people could possibly make it more user-friendly, short of sending trained monkeys over to your house to do the point and clicking for you. Okay, drag and drop and automatic batch processing, but I kind of doubt they've included that.
Besides, unless they've managed to reverse-engineer the various forms of DRM independently, they're probably using other people's freely-released work and charging for it, and I personally would avoid giving them money for that alone.
