Epub it is then!

I wanted to 'standardise' my collection by only having one format, but I see the need to keep my motley collection of txt, html, pdf, lit etc.

For some reson, Calibre only gives me the option to save to disk (ie loads of folders), save to disk in a single directory (a nightmare of assorted files) or save only LRF fromat to disk.

I wonder why it doesn't have an option to save only epub or mobi to disk?
I'd like to be able to convert them all to epub and dump them into a folder, and keep a separate folder full of my originals as backup.

The only way I can think to do this is to convert them all to epub, dump the lot into a folder, arrange files by type, and delete everything that isn't epub, but that seems a very roundabout way of doing it.
