OK, my son-in-law went with Kindle and I with Kobo and there seems to be a price advantage with Kindle books so I thought I would check it out. The first book I tried to download was by Stephen Hawkins and listed for $12.59 shipped to Canada, and the Kobo was $20 which included taxes. In trying to download through the Kindle app the book was not available. Therefore I assume international rights were not bought by Amazon (just a guess). So I tried a second book by Simon Scarrow, $9.99 Kindle and $14.13 Kobo. I was successful in downloading this book using the Kindle app. The total cost at Kindle was the shown price of $9.99. However it does not appear on the Kobo Vox library but is only available via the Kindle app to read. This is not a serious problem as the format is excellent. So Kindle is definitely cheaper, the Kindle shown price includes all taxes etc. while the higher Kobo shown price does not. Kobo smarten up.
