Yes, CloudLibrary uses ePub under the covers; but you can add their books to ADE after checkout if you want. Axis360 has a proprietary in-browser format, but they also let you download ePubs and open in ADE. Hoopla is the one app I use (rarely) that only has a proprietary format.

You fail to mention that almost everyone else is using epub with Adobe DRM (or CareDRM in Europe) and are inherently compatible with each other.

The point of selling hardware (for Amazon) is to sell books to people. Kobo is the only one from that list who is a genuine competitor. |
