Which brands are generally more piracy-friendly? Do you suggest any specific model? Or maybe there are products that are easily customizable at the OS level? Thanks!

I never really compared the source to the converted mobi, but overall I can't really complain.
Usually if the formatting is a little screwed up I assume it's the source's fault. :)

Almost every book I read nowadays is an epub converted to mobi.

Honestly, the bigger issue I have is the inability to put the sideloaded books into a series "folder".
Instead I had to set Calibre to add " " string to the book tile in the metadata. :/

Fair enough :)

Hmm. I never thought about trying to organize them in a series folder.
I just let Calibre do the default folders by author.

One thing that I want to do is for a few books change the metadata to have just the main author because for a given book of a given series it will concatenate all 15 authors-or-writers-or-helpers-or-whatever, and for that reason that book, the third of 5 books, is in a different folder.
