Odd. I have a Kindle, and I don't have to buy all my ebooks from Amazon. I can get DRM-free books from several places, and furthermore, Calibre is my friend.

A major drawback to one can be a minor hindrance to another, although YMMV. Sounds like your set in your ways. Are you a real librarian? I hope not, with your opinions.
