Well, after all this consternation and research, it turns out, that for the books I want (right now), it just works. I already have a Fictionwise account and was looking at some stuff I bought and never got around to downloading from years ago. I picked MOBI (Kindle compatible format) and downloaded them.

Then, I plugged in the Kindle and dragged them to the documents folder on the Kindle. That's all there was to it. I didn't even have to buy anything new to test it.

HarryT was right with the original response. I guess I just got scared off by all the DRM talk and reading about Igorsk's scripts.
