Unlike the link you sent me for fictionwise they didn't have any info re: encryption what I'm learning is also called DRM. I have question on how this encryption effects the end user.
Hey, jcbrief, that's Baen Publishing's website -- the reason you can't find any info on DRM there is that they don't use it at all. Their files are completely DRM/Encryption free, so you should be able to read them just fine.

I have a number of Baen's e-books (which I'm quite satisfied with), but I download them as RTF's and run them through a Word macro to mark them up for eReader. I think I remember playing with MobiPocket for a while, but founding I preferred the way eReader worked for me. Purely a matter of preference, of course.
