If you want to read this text on your Kobo, you have to get a kepub / epub license from one of the selling shops / libraries.
If you don't do that, are you violating copyright law, which prohibits any modification of the file - or do you not see that a format conversion is a modification of a file?
A paper book is your property and you can do whatever you want with it.
But not a file.
I ask again, in what way is that stealing from the author?
