Right, the JBL handles the eReader DRM very well, but I have a couple of
reasons to liberate those books also.
For one, my credit union occasionally has suggested I replace my Visa card
with them, due to some business that I have dealt with having been hacked
and that my card could therefor be compromised. Naturally I am quick to
follow up on that and have them issue a new card. This means that the
books on hand no longer unlock with the CC# in my pocket. Establishing the
number used on a purchase made months or even years ago can be a real
hassle.
The .pdb looks fine and many prefer its tighter display, but I like the more
open display that Calibre converted .epub ebooks have.
I like creating a large library on an SD card, that I can be sure will play on
any device I may wish to use it in. Without the DRM all the ebooks are
associated with the SD card and not any particular device. If I want to read
a book on a new or different device it's just a matter of inserting the SD card.
