I do not buy from big sellers so I don't think I have a single book with DRM. Small publishers give me wide range of formats without any restrictions.
I think series problem is solved in Kindle using calibre. Will have to check it out.
What about metadata includint blurbs?
With kindle it seems the only way to have blurbs is to convert all mobi books to mobi adding metadata as first page using calibre. I'd rather not. Afraid of damaging the original format in some way because of the convert settings.

The Kindle will display some metadata fields, such as title and author, but you're right - most metadata is not displayed.
You don't have to worry about damaging the original book doing Calibre conversions. Calibre will retain your original book, and you can always go back to it if anything goes wrong. It's not very likely that it will, though; Calibre is an extremely reliable program.
