Same here. I find that now that I’m not in an “Kindle or nothing” mindset for ebooks, I’m much more enthusiastic about getting them. I have a list of sources that I search through, prioritizing DRM-free EPub but also considering any format which works with my devices.
So now instead of just “library (but only if Kindle format) or Amazon” my options are library in any format, or any one of about half a dozen stores where I can source downloadable ebooks. I have happily found quite a few books that aren’t even in Kindle format and I thought were unavailable as ebooks, plus I’m often able to support authors more by buying directly from their site or a store that gives them more control over their publication than Amazon does.
