Confused as to what the question is, are you looking for an idea as to which ebook platform is the most usable? In my experience (between Calibre & Komga) Calibre is the champion, its not the one people talk about all the time for nothing
I'm not into ebooks that much and don't have experience with them. I still prefer paper. I've just been totally put off by all the bad stuff I've read about DRM etc. Is it really a problem and how do these tools that you mention above cope with them. I'm one of those that often annotates with pencil in the books I read. Can you annotate DRM protected content with Open Source tools?
On DRM you have a few choices, find a site that doesn't use it, sail the high seas, or this tool called DeDRM
Hope this helps!
