I understand. I have calibre and ADE and the plugin for Google Play ebooks, and even installed the Kindle app in preparation for buying Kindle versions, and then the wind went out of my sails. I hate the idea of DRM to start with, and the thought of paying for an ebook and then jumping through new hoops to convert it leaves me cold. Acquiring books is usually a pleasure in itself, but having to learn the different ways of de-DRMing them has turned it into a chore for me. I have a large TBR pile, so it doesn't take much to turn me off buying an ebook.
