I have never done this before. This doesn't extract the PID since the
Kindle for PC uses a "per-book session key for the actual en/decryption."
I was able to install Kindle for PC, purchase a book from Amazon, install Python, save the scripts in the proper directory, remove the drm, place the resulting .mobi file in Calibre, convert the .mobi file to epub and have it on my reader in about 30 minutes. Now that everything is set up, from purchase to reader in just a few minutes.
The actual script took less then a minute to execute.
This doesn't work for topaz books. You can tell before you buy by downloading the sample chapter. All the files download with a .prc extension, but when the script is run on the topaz sample the result will be an error telling you it is topaz.
I think Amazon may get a little more of my business now.
