Probably depends on the language. Because I wouldn't call 586 books a good selection (and a decent amount of those are available for free on Gutenburg). And I can't even find one on the Amazon.com site... And I, as a Dutch person, cannot buy kindle books from the .co.uk site (even though it does have at least some Dutch books...)

So, epub books it is, and thus that horrible adobe infection. And why I'll never let my mother buy an ebook without me checking it first (and buying, cleaning and sending it to her if required).
