It's going to be a tough choice for me subscribing to Kobo Plus in the U.S.A. The Canada store has more choices than the United States. My IP is in Hawaii, so their servers keep directing me to the Canadian store. I think one of my old Kobo readers was even shipped from Canada. I keep asking myself why Canada has so many more books than the US? (They should never have redirected me to the Canada-based site, where I can compare the differences.)
I'll check in the Kobo sub-forum for the pros and cons of KU vs. KP. The cost of the subscriptions is not a deterrent since I rack up over $30K USD/yr at Amazon.
N.B. Kobo Plus is not yet available in the US. Looking forward to it arriving in my dysfunctional nation, assuming we are still a democracy in the near future.
