I have alot of content at B&N & Fictionwise & ebookwise mainly because I have an EB1150 but I have never learned to strip drm and really just want to sit down with a book and read, not have to strip and fromat and fiddle for 20 minutes before I read anything. So my question is.... Did you have any trouble finding content that was easy to download and read without having to fiddle to much? Thank you.

I am considering buying a reader that doesn't read drm, mainly because they seem less expensive, and because I almost never read drm books. There are things to consider like does your public library offer ebooks and will you want to read them? That would require drm reading ability. What books do you want to read? Best sellers and big name authors and publishers will mostly require drm reading ability.
But my point is that there are a lot of ebooks without drm. A lot. I have a blog listing free ebooks, many are drm-free. Fictionwise multi-format books are drm free. Feedbooks and Manybooks.net offer all drm-free, and free, ebooks. I just posted today a link to a list I found of drm-free publishers. Hopefully the list will be growing. You can check out all the places on the list to find drm-free ebooks. A person can have lots of reading material for years and years without ever reading a drm'd ebook.
