I know this might not make sense to some of you, but in the country I live in, the only way you can get a current top list book is to buy it from an online bookstore. I didn't know that prior to buying the ereader, and I didn't know that the only format those bookstores sold the books was DRM. I thought I would have other options of getting those titles I wanted to read. I guess I was naiive. I thought if a company designed an ereader and sold it, it would handle the typical formats. I'm not sure why anyone would want to buy a reader that only handled those "free" books out there. I bought and read real books from a bookstore prior to buying me ereader, and I thought that buying an ereader meant I could go digital and green and just buy those same books to read on my reader. I have read a lot of those "classics" in my life, and now I wanted to read newer books. This forum wasn't about removing DRM, it was about whether Calibre could respect and honor the protection, yet allow us to load it onto our readers. I guess many of you out there that might have some snippy things to say to me (or thinking it), it is because you forget that you were once a newbie. Everyone starts as a newbie before they can gain the knowledge and experience. You aren't born knowing everything. Thanks to everyone for your replies.
