I installed Calibre in November last year, so I could convert my Amazon-books to epub-format. I had never heard of it before. I installed some plug-in, but now I see that I still haven't installed a lot of plug-ins. And I don't even see a de-DRM plugin in the list of plug-ins that I haven't installed yet. I had never heard of plug-ins before and had I known there was something called a de-DRM plugin, I never would have bought epubsoft, being the "sucker" that I am. Honestly, if I look at some of the things that are written on this forum, looks so "technical" to me, that it could have well been written in Chinese. I Can you tell me where I can find this de-DRM plug-in for Calibre, please? That would save me a lot of work. |

I am then able to delete the copy from my download folder. I don't own either a Kindle or Kobo, and once converted they get manually transferred to my main phone, and the phones I have as backup as readers and mp3 players, as well as my Samsung tablet. If online books stores want people to buy their books, it is in their best interest to allow people download in whatever format suits the hardware that they have. That's why I would never get a B&N reader or books. |

The benefit of being able to remove DRM and convert books is that you can use whatever device suits you, even a B&N Nook. |
