Same here. And before sideloading, I clean them, check that the TOC suits me, and get rid of garbage. An example of things I hate is the new to me Penguin mania: a penguin icon above EACH chapter number, really? They're lucky that was classics, with the authors safely dead.
EDIT: I've also seen that in children's books.

I find it as easy to "disinfect" Kobo books as Amazon books (or any other I bought elsewhere). I compare prices from Calibre (and look up those missing for my usual sources), and if there is a big difference I'll buy from Amazon, but otherwise I prefer epubs (even from Kobo I download only epubs): the Amazon process converting to their format tends to be roughshod.
