It's going to be a bit of a project to investigate. I'll update here if i discover anything interesting!
Jon was referring to what happened when Sony went out of the ebook business. The customers and their books were transferred to Kobo. Whether Kobo connected those books to the books in their store I don't know.


For the record, my first book purchase from Kobo was March 2012. I can still see that on my devices and in the library. It isn't in my purchase history as I had an issue with my account and the only fix was to create a new one. Kobo transferred all the books, but they did not transfer the purchase history. I don't think I am missing anything. But, I've bought enough books over enough time and my recording of this was terrible in the first few years, that I probably can never be completely sure.
