Can this be done on the Fire?

Also can the Kobo and/or the Sony app be downloaded.
How about Aldiko?
if I can download them I can hopefully read ePub books on the Kindle as well? Is there a way to put files on thru the computer? or do I need to figure out this "cloud" thing.
has anyone tried this?
thanks

The Kindle Fire officially supports OverDrive Media Console. See post # 136 from this thread: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...157184&page=10

Other owners have reported that Kobo, Nook, Aldiko etc. work on the Fire. However, you will have to download these outside the Amazon App Store. The Fire can handle DRM books as well with a compatible reader like Mantano.
