But you still need to use ADE, to download and to authorize your device. At that point, what benefit is calibre?
I have an excuse. I need calibre to get some library books onto my Kindle, using the plugin-that-must-not-be-named. ADE doesn't allow that, and some Overdrive books are ONLY available via ADE.
And that's another point. Except for those books, and most CAN be checked out for Kindle, Amazon offers a much more streamlined checkout process, where you just click the overdrive checkout button, and select kindle instead of Adobe ePub. Instead of downloading the Adobe acsm file which registers your book in ADE, you simply get send to amazon.com to redeem the book into your account. All done in the browser, and the book gets automatically sent to your Kindle.
Yay! We are now back on topic. Kindles are awesome, so there you go.
