That is true, and Kobo is better than Amazon in that way. I was not discussing that, I was discussing whether or not Amazon adds DRM to books that are supposed to be DRM free. They don't, any more than Kobo does.

I also brought up the fact that books bought from Kobo and synced to devices are just as obfuscated as books bought from Amazon and synced to devices.

I never said anything about the ability to download books directly from either website, only what happens when syncing, or downloading directly to a device.
