I just voted, using eBook library on a Mac. But I should note that my only use for the program is interacting with Sony's bookstore. And only for freebies, at that.* I use Calibre for everything else.

*I refuse to purchase eBooks with DRM. I'll tolerate it for free books, but only just. I'm still undecided on whether I'll purchase ebooks whose DRM I can strip. I have no problems (technical or ethical) with stripping the DRM for personal use only. I just don't want to send the economic message that the DRM is "OK with me."
