Now I have to resort to buying more and more from Amazon. I recently bought a book from Amazon for $9.99 (the horror! ) which I could've bought from Kobo for less than $3.00 if only it was available in epub. Total 'unsmiley' moment
What? Amazon don't sell epubs, so you would have had to strip DRM and convert to epub anyway. Why not just buy the Kobo book and do the same?

Thanks Anemicoak. I was googling away and my eyes crossed trying to figure out what I needed.

Not that I have such a file, but you know it will happen sooner or later.

I got instructions on how to liberate a kepub into epub, but it definitely wasn't as neat and simple as the Calibre plugins. In any case, I wanted to try it but I found I couldn't access any of my Kobo books via the desktop app. The books were all there but when I clicked on them I got an error message (see attachment). I deleted and re-installed the software and the same thing happened. I eventually gave up.

Most likely Kobo sells publishers on the idea that KEPUB DRM is even harder to crack than Adobe's, which, alas, seems to be true.

I emailed Penguin earlier in the year when I was caught out with Kobo's offering of the reprint of the Maigret series as kepub, and as far as they are concerned these books are epub, so it IS Kobo, not the publisher.

I had no success converting them to epub, although others here have.
I admit I am partly guilty for kepub-epub discussion, so this will be my last post on it (just very irritated with Kobo, sorry guys).
I was just looking for the book Classic Mulk Raj Anand published by Penguin in January this year.
On Kobo India it's 479.19 rupees and it's kepub (with multiuse 40% off code perkopolis it would be 287.51)
On Google Play India it's 299.50 and it's epub.
I bought it on Google Play without code.
I have no idea what Kobo's intentions are, but I am strongly convinced that kepub is either Kobo's decision or Penguin's based on Kobo telling them that it's a great option.

They may have started it because they wanted to see if they could create their own formula and not have to pay adobe?
