No need to convert to ePub. Just download the eBooks as ePub.

If I already have the book as kepub, I'm not going to bother downloading an ePub when de-kepubifying is so simple.

It's easier to download the ePub because of the ASCM Input plugin.

Not quite right, Jon. To download the ePub when I already have the kepub requires me to open a web browser, login to Kobo's website, go through the steps to get to the book I want and then download either the ePub or the .acsm file (nonDRMmed gets the ePub, DRMmed gets the .acsm file). Then I need to add either download option to calibre.

Kepub? I purchase the book, sync my Kobo, open calibre and connect the Kobo to my computer, run Obok, select the books and I'm done.

Either workflow works and I don't really care which I use since, for me, removing the kepub bits and bobs requires minimal effort.
