Okay. You're right. I was forgetting that Calibre had to reverse engineer the format to read it. But my point was that the DRM and the format issues are separate. It's perfectly reasonable for Amazon to be referring to the format without reference to the DRM, so it wasn't the DRM that Amazon was saying makes the page turns faster.
