Most purchased EPUB books have DRM. This prevents Calibre from opening them. You can still use calibre to store and transfer them to your e-book reader.
Calibre is an open source ebook program that can also reformat other types of files to .epub https://calibre-ebook.com/

Only ebooks i've gotten from amazon were when the book was free, ( i think i brought one for $.99)
otherwise all ebooks from the sites i use, i convert and read.. never any problem
