I didn't even bother to download the Kobo software. I wonder how many people do. I suppose there may be some people who just stick with Kobo books, but with so many other sources for epubs I can't imagine relying on only one store.
I downloaded and installed it because I was expecting some management functions but what it offers is underwhelming if you already have a significant number of ebooks.
Apparently I can get a few quid off my first purchase. Then I'll probably delete the desktop app. Hardware good, software bad. Too often the case.
