I think you're assuming that I live in Calibre. It is not something I use daily. If I use it more than a couple of times month, that's a lot (though I do go through conversion frenzies from time to time).

This year I'm trying to read more of the freebies I've collected over the past couple of years, most have already been converted or don't need conversion as they are Kindle books (I keep DRM stripped versions in Calibre but I read the DRM'd versions on my Kindles). I can still drag and drop those books onto my computer from Windows Explorer without opening Calibre.
