Agreed as one of the best reasons to buy an ereader is PD ebooks. They were a pain for 20 years till PDAs, phones & tablets and it made a huge difference having the PW1.
Even if you never bought an ebook, even if Kobo didn't sell ebooks, Kobo + calibre is the best solution for maybe 100,000 legally free ebooks, inc 70K on gutenberg. Also read large web site content saved off line via LO Writer and/or calibre such as these
https://archive.sacred-texts.com/neu/celt/index.htm

Either save websites or copy/paste to writer.
Or if you write, give up printing on paper. Instead "print" to docx, convert docx to epub with calibre. Copy back annotations.
Save maybe 1000 pages of paper plus toner or ink every year. An epub is a much better solution than Sony's (and others) DPT solutions using PDF.
