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?

You need calibre with the De-DRM extension and an old version of the kindle desktop app.

Need to retry this at some point, last time i tried it, the Kindle app worked in Wine but had no connection, i suspect this was a Wine configuration issue

Last time I tried, the old version just wont load. it forces an update and the updated version won't seem to work.
