Yeah that's the issue...From what I can tell, Amazon differentiates between both and I imagine that would affect how its central database of highlights/bookmarkings keeps track of each individual book. I suppose this would affect you only if you were highlighting a DRM book and then stripped the DRM...which I guess is mostly an edge case.



From what I saw on my own Kindle, there's no "central database of highlights/bookmarkings"; it's stored per book in new files Kindle create next to each book.
