I mean, if you want to bring conversion into it, you could easily send those ePubs to the Kobo as kepub and you'd have all those zoomable images the kids are talking about nowadays.

If the images are made with high enough resolution and contrast, in most cases, you won't have a need to zoom the images.

I agree. But obviously there's people out there that feel differently. I think trying to show them a work around is better than critiquing their feelings.

My new suggestion is a workable solution that will solve both problems of paranoia and having a real account. Create a new email address at Gmail or Hotmail and use that to register an account at Kobo. Then if you ever want to buy eBooks at Kobo, you can do so. If not, then you don't have to. But in either case, you'll have a real account that can stay unused or eventually be used. And in at least one case, the fake registration has changed so it is unknown if the fake registration used now will always work. My way will always work.
