This. I wish there was at least a heads up before the move. I'm really disappointed that this happened especially since I brought Borders Rewards + specifically for buying ebooks and was going to spend my Border Bucks on an e-book that I got as a PDF and there was finally a EPUB release for it (unless kobobooks can prevent me having to buy the book full price twice but I doubt it). Plus the features really has nothing for me to be happy about since I don't use apps since I have Calibre and ADE and I only read with my e-reader.

Seriously, a bad move. I can't see how most Borders customers won't be upset about this. Luckily I don't have a foreign currency fee to pay.
