Reply to comment by farseer4 in Physical books are an escape from being plugged in. Opinions on longevity of eReaders vs physical books? by etherfunds

Good point. Smart thing to do. Is Calibre a mobile app or can you download physical copies straight to a laptop/desktop?

Calibre is software for Windows/Mac/Linux. You download the ebook file, use calibre to remove any DRM and convert it to your preferred format, and then you can save your copy wherever you like. I always keep a copy of my books in my PC and another in the cloud. You can also use Calibre to send the ebooks you want to your (preferably eInk) device.
