From the responses, it seems that I would need to take extra steps. As I would like a copy for my computer since I may get a different e-reader in the future, should I instead buy it from amazon directly to the kindle and then get a copy through calibre?

Thanks
You can buy eBooks from Amazon and download them directly to your Kindle. You can also then plug your Kindle into your calibre library and add them to your library directly from the Kindle.
