Feedbooks (www.feedbooks.com) is an example of a bookshop where it is possible to download DRM-free ebooks direct to the Kobo device using the built-in web browser.

I have downloaded free ebooks direct from Project Gutenberg 47,000+ free books to a Kobo Touch.

What about the library here?

Thanks for your very usefull comments. As far as I remember, the TOLINO reader was able to do this. Unfortunately I droped a heavy item with one corner onto the Tolino screen, which made it unusable and in need to buy a new one.

I know the Gutenberg project since years abd have a lot of their books. But somehow one needs books where the author is still living of did not die 70 years or longer ago.

I am actually thinking of selling the Kobo and rebuying a Tolino, especially as one representative of a bookshop who belongs to the concortium who built Tolino went into a lot of pain to explain the differences between the two readers.
