Has anyone actually succeeded to remove DRM? I just want my books that I bought. I have Kindle books and comics, and nook books (yes, nook)

I've been through the online guides but so far no good. I don't have a kindle device if that matters.

Am I better off just downloading copies from someone else who did it already?

I do it for all books I've purchased because Fair Use has ruled that I have a right to make copies of media I've purchased, for my own personal use.

Calibre & DeDRM. If these are the tutorials you've tried and have failed with, I can't help you. It's even harder with Linux, but somehow I've managed. You might have more luck if you say how it's failing.

I wasn't able to get the serial number - there is supposed to be a way to get a serial number for the desktop app, but I could never manage it.
