PLEASE!!! quit disseminating false information!
PLEASE!!! quit making it sound like it's easy to do and the Kindle natively reads library books straight out of the box! This is what people mean when they say "the device does this". It doesn't mean it can't be done, just that it's not native, and therefore not easy.

It is most certainly against the TOS to strip DRM from library books. And I also consider it unethical. Are you going to argue my personal ethics are wrong?

You're very tenacious though, popping into every thread that mentions Kindle+library to declare that library books can be read on the Kindle. It's also possible to run burned games on my Xbox360... oh, did I mention I have to mod it first? I didn't? Well, newbie, you should get it anyway. Don't worry about the technical side of it, the legal issues, or ethical implications either. Just know that it can be done. That's all you need to know to make your decision. What a load of unhelpful BS.
