iPod no Barnes&Noble ebooks for iPod (Canada) reader?

bcgirl · 12-03-2009, 01:38 AM

Just read a sample (amazed about the quality) from a first ebook, my favourite James Patterson. After the sample ended I wanted to purchase and started enter my credit card info. However, it is only for the U.S. So where do I go to download this ebook. Barnes&Noble is not for Canada at all?

Hi,

I am in Canada and have the same issue. If you look at the app store, you will see an ereader.app (it is from ereader.com) and it is actually owned by Barnes and Noble but that reader app and that store is set up for international use. There are country codes and things for every book.

So I buy my book from eReader.com (or Fictionwise or at any online bookstore that supports eReader formatted books) via the eReader app.

There is also the Stanza app from the app store that can be used to read many different format books. Between the ereader.app and the stanza.app and use of my own Sony PRS 600 reader, I have yet to end up with a book I can't read at least someplace.

Hope this helps,

Kevin

I have been using eReader software for a long time, I am not a huge fan of DRM but the eReader version has allowed me to move my books across meny PCs/PDAs. (ps I am also a canadian)

I have tried the Kobo (ties in with chapters/indego) and Stanza both are OK but my favorate is still eReader (mostly do to long time use).

I haven't tried it but they were supposed to start selling ebooks in Canada on Dec 1.

I would try the new kobo reader for the ipod Touch.
