But honestly, I could live with a Kindle or a Nook as my only reader and be fine. The metadata is nice to have. But in the end, I enjoy the reading experience enough on all three devices.

Yes, if Kobo didn't exist I'd be using a Kindle and beats paper, both for fun reading and also proof/annotate where I've saved about 8,000 sheets of print. It was also so slow, never mind the expense, to print a novel. I copied annotations off Kindles for a few years.

But if Amazon and Kindle didn't exist, I'd not be using a Nook, but likely Sony would still be making them. A pain to get annotations off the PRS-350 (I experimented). The PRS-350 and the PRS-T2 are both still better (and still on original batteries!) than older Kindle Basics and the Nook Touch I had. The current basic is a bit like a PW3.
