And I'd like a large choice of mainstream titles, not just small press/indy/self-published. My genre preferences are dark fiction, fantasy, SF and literature, but not exclusively. Thanks!

You're not locked into anything, if you let calibre and Alf be your friend.

Of course, if you don't want any friends, then I would avoid Kobo and every ebook store that sells DRM'd ebooks. If you prefer to purchase DRM-free ebooks, then calibre alone can be a great friend, indeed.
