The solution (supplied from another thread) was to make sure that you have actually *opened up* the purchased book - the act of opening it for reading does something clever to the DRM. Trying to run the script against the downloaded but unopened book failed miserably, but when I ran it against the *opened* version it worked perfectly. The post-opened book was stored somewhere like "My e-books", so if you try this you might have some success.
Keeping my fingers crossed for you! Good luck.

I'm not aware that that is the case. I download my ebooks on a mac, which naturally doesn't have the software to open the files, but I can still strip the DRM on the same machine without them ever having been opened.
