My first choice in buying an ebook is to go to a guaranteed DRM-free source, like Baen or Smashwords. If I have to go with a DRM-ed copy, my first choice is Barnes & Noble, because I can disinfect it on my Linux netbook. My second choice is Amazon, because of their selection and pricing strategy, but I have to use my Windows box to disinfect it. I've bought a few books at Kobo, and I enjoy their coupons, but I have to download them on my Windows box, which is already inconvenient. If there's even a hint that I'll waste money on an ebook that can't be "Alf'ed" I won't bother with them, no matter what the coupon.
Sorry, Akshayy, but you're perfecting something that I want to avoid.
