  • I've never had problems downloading ebooks to my computer via Kobo for PC
  • I've always have trouble downloading ebooks to my computer via NOOK for PC and NOOK Study (both of which are abominable in my experience; the former even more so than the latter): both apps have always taken an inordinate amount of time to load, and more often than not they've frozen
I've used Barnes and Noble Desktop Reader and now nook for PC to download eBooks from B&N. I've never had any crash or considerable slowdown. I've had more problem with Kindle for PC then I have nook for PC. The problems have been having to log back into Amazon to retell the system to resend the eBook. I've always been able to remove the DRM from either.
