deDRM Glassboxx

Hello,
Does anybody know how to import into Calibre the books I have bought from Firsty Group and downloaded into their Glassboxx? You might want to have a look at https://firstygroup.com/glassboxx, and also at the clarification I received from Firsty, about their business model.
Quote:
The ebooks are tied to the Glassboxx delivery system which requires the Glassboxx apps. We cannot deliver the ebooks to you outside of the app.
In my opinion, Glassboxx works very similarly to Kobo, so my question is, if anybody knows of a Calibre plug-in similar to obok
Thank you for any hint.

Sorry, but there is no way to liberate these eBooks.

From what I just read, it looks like...you ay your money and get locked in big time. Glassbox exists to be another lock with no key.

Thank you, @JSWolf, for clarifying this for me.

Even if these are not exactly good news, it is at least useful to know, that what I have to do now is to minimise my losses.

Thank you.
