I'm not doing this anymore. Simply too time consuming.

I never understood this point.
Stripping DRM takes no time at all. You sprinkle some Alf into your PC, and after downloading your book(s) into Kindle for PC or ADE, you import them into Calibre.
*poof*, DRM gone.
Converting to a different format takes a few mouse clicks and you're done.

So he doesn't bother about saving up to €800 a year, or €67 a month? I would.
Being able to remove DRM and convert books can save a lot of money through deals, free books, or coupon codes, whatever the reader you have.
