Hypothetically, one could get them cheapest from Kobo, but I prefer to deal direct and get them not only DRM-free (which they are not in the other stores) but also support the authors/publisher with more money going to them.

At the current sale price point, Amazon would give them 35 cents and PPP would then have to take their cut before passing on the remaining few cents to the authors. Direct buying gives them the entire 99 cents less transaction fees and hopefully they'd share out the extra profits.
