Now I have to resort to buying more and more from Amazon. I recently bought a book from Amazon for $9.99 (the horror! ) which I could've bought from Kobo for less than $3.00 if only it was available in epub. Total 'unsmiley' moment
I find this whole new kepub or epub3 crap just that crap. I was told it was the publishers doing this on Kobo and me thinks this is not really true. Why would a publisher put it on Kobo as a kepub and then on Google Play Books as just an epub. Makes no sense to me.

I will not be shopping on Kobo as much any more.
