For me, it takes no extra effort at all. None. Ik keep all my books in Calibre, and import Kindle books I buy off my Kindle directly into it. Stripping the DRM in the process (Thank you, Apprentice Alf...).

Non-DRMed books from other sources get imported from my PC's hard disk, but the 'import into Calibre'-action is identical.
