1. Never had a problem with covers on Kobo.
2. Really only the thumbnails get much use, and only because you can't turn them off.
3. I don't see the covers on the paper books either unless I take it from the shelf. The My Books should have an option to list without thumbnails.
1. Lucky you. I didn't have trouble either for the first year or so.

2. I browse via thumbnails, so they are desired very much indeed. And I also like to see the sleep cover image before I wake up the device and and when I send it to sleep .. feels more like a regular physical book that way.

3. I guess like me, you use a cover for your paperbacks. I always meant to make a clear version of my stitched vinyl covers, but never did get around to it, and then ebooks came along ... but I still might one day, as I have a huge paperback library with a large backlog. So my preference, is to see the cover when I grab a book and when I put it down. Mostly I tend to read my ebooks these days, as I also have an awful lot of them.

In any case, as I said earlier, each to their own ... whatever floats your boat, makes you happy.
