Actually, if you are set properly to be able to strip the DRM from MS Reader or Mobipocket, then either is just as easy to convert.

Both Mobi and LIT are based on the OEB standard; there's very little to choose between them. Mobi will probably give you a more direct conversion; when I buy LIT I generally go LIT -> Mobi -> ePub.
Why not just go LIT > ePub > Mobi?

Once you get a well made ePub, going Mobi is better then putting Mobi in the middle.

Either is just as easy as the other to strip.

But doesn't the OP want to end up at ePub? The question was whether MOBI or LIT would be easier to strip of its DRM on a Mac system.

Kindle for Mac uses a per-book PID scheme similar to the one used in Kindle for PC and Kindle firmware 2.5+.

Unlike the Kindle for PC scheme, no-one's managed to reverse engineer the Kindle for Mac scheme yet.

In short: You can't find the PID for Kindle for Mac.
