Reading through your list, the choice seems obvious. Buy the Libra.

But if you do go for the Onyx:

Don't count on it. I have not heard any positive reviews of purchases from GoodEreader if any sort of issues or follow-up were required. They also mark things up outrageously

Why not just try the Onyx website?

You don't mention your location. If you are in the US, I'd recommend ordering the Libra from Walmart, rather than from Kobo. Yes, there is the shame from ordering from Walmart, but they are very speedy shippers (I got my Clara in a day) and if there are issues, you can return it to any of their stores (though they likely won't have other Libras in stock for a direct exchange).

Edit: Onyx or Kobo, don't be afraid of converting books you purchased from Amazon. The initial set up takes maybe fifteen minutes.. I don't know how many books you would be starting with, but the conversion of a single book takes seconds.

For me, it is worth having all my books backed up as DRM-free ePubs, though not everyone here agrees.
