Nah. I don't buy books for the sake of buying books, but Kobo is making some good suggestions by email lately. They're actually suggesting books in the same or similar genres that I DON'T have.
The only thing that ticks me off is the price difference between regions. That is just ridiculous. Today I've bought a five book omnibus.
Log into my Dutch Kobo account: € 24.75
Log into "my" US Kobo account*: $ 18.95 (€ 14.15)
This is an over €10 saving right there. PERKOPOLIS takes another 40% off the US price, getting me five books for €8.49. Sometimes, if I can't get a book using my Dutch or US account, I "travel" to UK or India; sometimes the prices in India ridiculously low. They incite me to just send an e-mail to Kobo asking them to remove DRM from the books and sell me their entire Fantasy and Science-Fiction catalog.
(* To be honest, it's a relative's account who often stays in the USA and has an address there.)
