I want to support Kobo, but haven't bought for some time. So I bought an inexpensive short story and can see it on my iPad's Kobo app and on my iMac's Kobo app. I normally use my iPad's app by dragging .epubs to iTunes.

I found what looks like my new story:
/Users/HBrazee/Library/Application Support/Kobo/Kobo Desktop Edition/kepub/c8863840-593c-44dd-8077-145c30f57bf3

What I want to do is get this story on Calibre. If I can do this without DRM, then I will buy more stuff from Kobo. Otherwise, I will get rid of my account with them. Is there a simple way of doing this?
Check for the OBOK plugin for calibre. Search Apprentice Harper, obok_plugin.zip for more information or grab the latest DeDRM (6.5.5?) package from Apprentice Alf's blog which has the Obok plugin included.

Any further discussion is going to have to be taken elsewhere.
