Very much so. Just use Calibre to load books and your fine.

  I'm not sure how it works now, but older Kindles were just mass storage devices so you could put books there by hand.

    You still can, but calibre lets you do format-conversion (since mobi is the only real format you can push to it while retaining readbility). It also allows you to tidy up meta-data and stuff to make things look better. It's definitely a "required" component as far as my Kindle is concerned.

  I used to have Calibre, but decided not to install it on my latest system, due to this bug and the cavalier reaction to it: https://bugs.launchpad.net/calibre/+bug/885027 https://bugs.launchpad.net/calibre/+bug/885027
