Oh, they'll download through a sync just fine, and they show up in Books. I just don't appreciate being forced to rely on the Kobo app, which I don't particularly like in the first place.

If push came to shove, I could let their software download them to my PC and use obok to liberate them for archival - but I shouldn't have to go to those lengths. I can archive DRM-protected EPUBs (and PDFs) without cracking that protection, just by downloading them with ADE and copying them to another folder. All I'm saying is that I ought to be able to do that with all my Kobo purchases, and I shouldn't have to wonder about whether I'll be able to back up my purchases before making them. (When was the last time you went to the store, bought something, and were told you couldn't leave the building with it?)
