If you ever change your mind about stripping the DRM, though, Apprentice Alf is where to go.
If I had known the DRM would keep me from placing it on my ereader then I obviously would not have bought it. I'm not that desperate for a pity party.

Kobo is an independant ebookstore, and since it is not locked into any DRM ecosystem I had assumed the books it sold would work on - emphatic drumroll please - independant ereaders. So I'm completely confused.

I have purchased various other DRM-protected ebooks from a different ebook store that work just fine for me.
