> Calibre does its job so well it's downright essential for anyone thinking about dealing with ebooks.

Its “job” is not well-defined. I read electronic books almost exclusively (for prose fiction; art and equations are a different bag) since 2008 or so, and never saw any point in it beyond format conversion.

It does format conversion very well. The command-line converter requires a running graphical session for some reason, though.
