My wife uses the Nook. I'm using the Kindle. I'm not going to pay for two copies of a book. The Calibre plug-in just makes book management that much easier.

I will say that if Amazon's goal with their DRM was to make copying difficult for the very casual buyer, they've succeeded. I've worked in IT for years and it took me a bit of futzing around and forum searching to figure it out. The tools aren't ready for the unwashed masses.
