I thought we were in the same time zone. It is only about
8:30a (Sunday) here now.

After stripping drm, why don't you leave it in epub? (unless

I don't have that problem with my drm epub purchases. I can
"store" the file on Adobe Digital Editions (on the pc) or copy
them over to the Kobo. There is no process that would
automatically make those files go away.
However, if you were to lose your offline storage and wanted
to refresh the purchases (much like how iTunes maintains
purchases), then the seller can arbitrarily delete the source
file or modify it so that you get a different edition.

Lately, most of the time it has been hard to motivate and get
"work" done. The shelves could be half-empty and I'd probably
feel the same way. I'd rather read a book or watch a film.
