I have searched in previous treads but I must admitt I still feel a bit confused. Its actually amasing how messy the whole situation with diffrent formats and DRM is.

Witch formats do other PRS-700 users prefer?
How do you handel the situation with DRM. Even if a format is perfect now just buying a new computer seems to create problems.
most region specific book stores can be bypassed by setting the country to US, and using something like paypal or a US credit card.

the DRM can be removed from Mobi and Lit files, and both are excellent sources for LRFs that you can make in Calibre or book designer.

I have never really done it, so I cant get into specifics, but Fictionwise and books on board come to mind, a quick forum search will tell you how to bypass the region lock on those book stores.

the workshop section of the forum is a good place to look around to get some clues.
