DRM can be removed from the books if downloaded to Amazon's "Kindle for PC" software, or to an iOS device. Mobipocket format books can be converted to ePub without noticeable loss of formatting. Topaz books are harder to convert, and require some manual tweaking to fix OCR errors (hidden when Topaz format is displayed by clever use of stored bitmaps of characters). There's a Kindle app available for iOS devices that reads all Kindle format ebooks. |

Man, I hoped it would be more easy.. Well, I am going to be buying them on an iOS device (iPad), so thanks for the advices.

It's the removal of DRM and conversion to other formats that's a little tricky. |

As you say, if you're going to be reading on the Kindle App on the iPad, there's no need to worry about DRM.
If you do want to remove DRM, the easiest way to do it by far is to install "Kindle for PC" on Windows, and use the "skindle" program (Google for it) to remove the DRM. |

I'm on a Mac, so I'll probably have to wait some years before being able to remove any DRM on Kindle files.. I can wait.

On a Mac you'd either need something like Parallels and a Windows installation (ugh), or you can do it through copies downloaded to an iOS device (iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad).
