The other really annoying thing about Freading is that they don't have a Kindle option, and Kindle is a far more popular ereader , especially in the US, where OverDrive enables the Kindle checkout. (I don't know, does Freading even operate outside the US?)
Thanks. The Kindle thing would probably be a deal-breaker because that is what most people have. But the lack of selection means it's not likely my library would spend money on it in addition to overdrive. Not that those books aren't good ones, but they can hardly implement two systems that are so different, maintain them and then not have kindle support on one...
