I've never made a point of checking the 'read this on' link before, but I certainly will from now on. I do all of my ebook reading on Apple devices now. I had been using other apps for kobo purchased books because I was finding their iOS app to be klutzy and I had privacy concerns regarding the social aspects of it, but the app's functionality has smoothed out and I addressed the privacy issue with their support staff. I also like syncing book location between devices, and other reading apps have not made a decent job of that just yet. Kobo had been selling the 'read freely' aspect, are they backing away from that now, I wonder?
