2. conversion of files to the format you need ;
3. managing the files on your device by displaying the contents and sending the file to the device, when it is connected.

4. Newspaper and magazine subscription service.
E.g., Calibre's free Newsweek magazine is such a perfect copy of the print edition, that I just let my Newsweek subscription run out and donated the subscription price to Calibre (plus a little extra in gratitude for the ePub View that works splendidly on a tiny touchscreen PC that I have--skimming newspapers is lightning fast on a PC compared to an e-Ink device).
