Yes, you're missing something. You're missing the part where people without a stand-alone Kindle would like to purchase books from Amazon and convert/read them on a reader of their choice. K4(whatever) is their only choice. For others, it's just workflow preferences and/or habit--from the days when K4PC was the ONLY DeDRM option (thanks to the 2.5 firmware update).
