Epub2 books that only download as kepub
Now that Kobo's showing the book format and DRM status on the book details page again, I thought it worth mentioning that not all epub2, Adobe DRM epub books are able to be downloaded. Instead these books can still only be retrieved via Kobo Desktop for PC (or perhaps a tablet or app depending on the book).
For example, a book in My Library that shows as 'Download options Adobe DRM epub', does not have a blue ADOBE DRM EPUB download button. The book can only be found in Desktop for PC.
Attached are a couple of photos that illustrate what I refer to.
The fact that it's kepub doesn't worry me because I have the means to convert it to epub, but this book is just an ordinary book with no illustrations or anything fancy and is part of a series which is downloadable.
So, I think that it's just basic human (or machine?) error that it's missing the download button.
