Thanks. I do still have an installer for one of the 1.17.x versions, so I could install that. Most (all?) of my past Amazon purchases are already in Calibre, so I haven't bothered installing K4PC recently since I just do the USB transfer option for individual purchases. Using K4PC = KF8/azw3, right?

I also like having my books all accessible even if I don't have a connection to the web. I also sometimes buy books from other sources and like the ability to keep all my books in one place, not to mention format shifting and other edits.
Same.
