Yes, fictionwise have dropped any DRMed format except eReader. Books already bought in a different format can still be downloaded from your bookshelf, but who knows how long that will last.

I have all my books safely downloaded, dedrmed and backed up. I also took the time to download all my multiformat ebooks in ePub format, which seems the best one for future conversions, a well as in Mobipocket, which is currently my format of choice.

The 50% sale is great — if there was anything on Fictionwise I wanted to buy.
Although I offer these multiformat suggestions from books that I've already bought:

Anything by Lawrence Watt-Evans, but especially the Ethshar series. "The Misenchanted Sword" is wonderful.

Stories of Your Life and Others by Ted Chiang. A splendid collection of SF and Fantasy short stories.

Fritz Leiber's Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser series. Classic fantasy.

The Dragon Man by Brian Stableford. Very good SF.
