Eat This Podcast@mauvehed Thanks for a great read and clear set of instructions. Just one thing (isn't there always?) The plugin DeDRM is not available in the list in my Calibre (9.5.0), although looking online did locate https://github.com/noDRM/DeDRM_tools
Is this the version you used?
@etp this write up is a bit better of a tutorial https://techy-notes.com/remove-drm-from-kindle-ebooks/
@mauvehed Thanks for this too, though I am on a Mac it offered a few clues. Lord but they do not make this easy, do they? I feel very fortunate that I don't have any audiobooks.
Doing this slowly, one book at a time from my Kindle Paperwhite into Calibre for conversion. Which is fine.
@etp The more I spend my time trying to reclaim my data.. the more obvious it becomes just how badly they don't want us to do it.
@mauvehed I managed to get everything out except my most recent purchase, which might be my last. Need to check on ebooks from other sources. Not sure how best to keep an eye on this arms race.
