So I'm not stuck with all that DRM nonsense.

As for Caliber, it may take you 20 minutes to understand it but I think it would be a little more for me and compared to 0 minutes required if the Kindle had DRM Free Epub support. (Also as I mentioned before I am NOT comfortable using Calibre).

Anyways, should there one day be an Epub supporting Kindle, let me know as I might be interested ...




Yes but you know what would be even more simple considering I'm not comfortable with Calibre ?
Epub support on the Kindle ... But we already discussed all this in previous posts.
My point was that the vast majority of people who are unaware of DRM issues and who are not able or 'comfortable' with calibre or other conversion softwares, are not going to be tracking down non DRMed epubs to use on their kindle. ... But others have I am sure pointed this out already at least once or twice.
And you can put non DRMed mobis on a Kobo for instance, but how many would do this. You probably do, but not many others I would guess.
