What is known to us that the Amazon Kindle is an e-book reader developed by Amazon.com.the kindle ebook format is specific to the kindle, can only be read by the kindle, it is new format file with eReader.

As a kindle user, I often ask a question myself: How can I the remove the DRM from books I have purchased for my Kindle? Because recently I bought few PDF ebooks from Amazon and then I have tried to load the on my reader, however, it is failed to do it for the reader can’t support the kindle fire. So I tried to convert them into EPUB files by using Calibre. Unfortunately, I was noticed that it can’t do the conversion until the DRM protection is removed.

Indeed, it is often the case, when we buy some ebook from Amazon, they are mostly with DRM protection, so it is a necessary for us to remove DRM from kindle books and then convert the drm books to iRver supported pdf or epub format.

There is a set of Python scripts for removing DRM from several different eBook formats, including Kindle's. One of them (called KindleBooks) allows you to remove the DRM without needing Kindle for PC. Instead it just uses the serial number from the Kindle they were purchased for to decode the books. It worked great for books downloaded on my Kindle 2.

It also has handy plugins for calibre, which is open source software for reading and converting various eBook formats as well as syncing to many different kinds of eBook readers. I highly recommend it.

The above tools work great on Linux, and should work fine on Mac OS X too as they are all Python-based.

In order to run them, you will need to install Python for Windows or Mac (which comes with Python, but apparently has older versions), or make sure you have packages for Python and its Tk binding installed on your Linux system.
