Hello again to you all and thanks for the warm welcome.
@ Solicitous - Kobo eReaders do indeed create sales commissions for the retailers. A device Id can be traced to the retailer and is used for warranty and sales-commission purposes. I think that this is a uniform practice so other retailers such as JB and Officeworks would also receive commissions, from my understanding.
@ Lynx Lynx - We will continue to sell ePubs as well as the other formats. Some of the newer formats like FLePub we currently have blocked as they misbehave in our older apps, so the range will increase with the inclusion of that and ePub3, also currently blocked.
Kobo have modified their data feeds so the information within them allows a different treatment on the website front-end. I will check when I'm back in the office tomorrow that we can definitely broadcast ePub as a distinct format (I think we can but wish to confirm how the feed is structured).
Thanks again for the feedback and questions.
Alastair.
