I wanted to get an idea of some things before I make my purchase, which hopefully you guys can help me out with.

1. Are certain kobo/kindle models more preferable for Calibre?
2. How long/annoying is the process to upload the daily articles?
3. Is Calibre Mac friendly?
4. Should I be concerned about anything long term, such as NY Times removing Calibre support/access?


Any advice or information is greatly appreciated.


Thanks,
Dino
Another option would be to run the NY Times app on an E-ink android tablet. I run it on my Onyx Boox Afterglow 2 and it works reasonably well. It also works quite well as a reader.
