You are allowed to do that? Granted, I don't buy DRMed eBooks, so my experience with lit is low. Just what I get for free and convert to a useful format.
My understanding is that like protected PDF and eReader files, protected lit files were locked up tight.

It's more than a little work. The convert lit program is not batch-friently and many of the files it contains are not in a good format (usually because MS Word does such a bad job converting to HTML).
But I stand by my statements: lit is a closed, proprietary format that offers nothing over the more open formats available and has very limited support on non-Microsoft products.
