While I've never tried it, it's my understanding that you can use calibre to remove the drm encryption on a purchased ebook so you can read it with something like fbreader (which, as far as I know, can't read a drm-encrusted ebook). Calibre is also available as an appimage. https://bintray.com/probono/AppImages/download_file?file_path=Calibre-3.18.0.glibc2.14-x86_64.AppImage -- Can we uninstall 2020 and install it again?

Last week I bought a couple books, not ebooks. I considered buying the ebook, but don't want to need a special device/appliance to read it. I'd much prefer to read ebooks on the Linux (CentOS) machine I'm already using. Also, I'd like to be able to programmatically convert the ebook into a format I can edit myself, e.g., HTML. I have no experience owning or purchasing ebooks.
