The Kobe desktop software gave me the impression that you can only download from the Kobe store. It also made me go through hoops picking irrelevant categories and subjects and ultimately still prevented me from just dragging and dropping an ePub file onto the 'bookshelf'. Every time I cleared the books it automatically put there (and which I didn't want) it went back to the beggining of the frustrating category selection process again. If the e-Book reader devices are anything like that then I am well and truly put off.
Is it not possible to put files on the memory card and put them into the reader or even download them via WiFi and just open the file and read it on these devices without being forced into going through the process of signing up to the bookstore and selecting unwanted categories and books that you don't want?

I do not have a Kobo ereader myself, but as far as I know you do not have to use the Kobo desktop software.
You can just go the Kobo website and buy your books there.
