complicated
I know the forums are for questions, but I need a road map. This ereader thing is complicated. I just want a to buy a gadget and then put some books on it. Color me conservative, but I'd actually prefer to pay for copyrighted/non-public domain materials I read...I want the good karma, I still plan on publishing my opus some day and then retiring on an island. There's different software and different book formats, and the mysterious DRM. I know what it means, and sort of what it does, but I don't really know how it will impact me. I'd like to have my books on my device but also backed up on my computer because, well, sometimes I drop things in toilets or swimming pools and my cell phone once took a trip through the washing machine. I'd hate to invest in a library and then lose it if I lost the device. I'd like to use a bookstore(s) that is available abroad, specifically in China, the land of censorship. Is there a specific thread or forum someone could point to for a beginner?
