David,
Sorry if I sounded a little crass, I meant no offense. I also don't appreciate being called naive for absolutely no reason...

All I meant was that you pointed out the Kobobooks limit of listing only 500 books per search, which as you mentioned, makes an accurate count pretty hard. So as I saw it, you asked a question, and then answered it (the same answer I would have given).

Question: Can anyone verify that there are 2 million titles available from Kobo, as claimed in this article?
Answer: It's impossible to tell exactly how many titles are on their web site, because if you browse by category, it only seems to list a maximum of 500 titles within any one category.
