I was surprised at that sale.
Overdrive, being B2B, was a better fit with Rakuten than Kobo, being B2C. Rakuten prefers to deal with organizations than individuals.

Kobo stands out like the redheaded stephchild in the Rakuten family of businesses. At arm's length. Which might explain the support they *don't* get.
