    I always keep my originals. I did a large batch conversion from .mobi to .epub back in the day and there were some formatting issues on quite a few of the converted books. Always nice to have the originals on hand in case something goes wrong, especially considering the miniscule file size

        Calibre combines duplicates and then I just select the file type I want when I download the book to my reader.
