And as a practical matter, it seems far easier for an unscrupulous tax dodgin' type to get library EPUBs over to the Kindle than it is to get cheap Amazon mobis Kobo-ready.
I just don't see how Kobo competes unless they cut their price to under 100.

As far as I know, kindle does not support epub. I may be wrong.
To me, the only option I want is to read without thinking all about
underlying hardware. And I do, except looking at battery indicator
often. Other matter is that almost every manufacturer tries to lock
you into the silo. You accept it or not.
