No buying DRM books through the Sony Store till I can figure out how to strip the drm before I put it on my Sony reader. Sorry bookstores, you're out of luck.
Once again, I've had the waiting circles freeze my ereader mid book, requiring a reset and another sync with the desktop app to get the reader to recognise I have the right to read these books. Maddening. And what do I do if this happens on holidays when my computer with the downloaded rights is not available?
I must try a drm book on my kindle and see if it happens there too.
In comparison, I've read 30-40 books on both platforms that weren't drm'd and I've had zero problems.
Go Baen and Smashwords!

Do you use Calibre Jenny? It's kind of the main tool people use to manage ebooks these days. It doesn't have an in-built DRM stripper, but you can download an add-in which does it. It makes it very easy to merge your multi-format library.
I second the recommendation of Calibre. It's a good backup tool and will also helpfully convert books that aren't offered in the right format for your reader (
I don't ...but I'm thinking I should.
