I forgot about Diesel even though I do shop there when they have their deal of the day. I never knew about OmniLit.

There's also ebooks.com and ebookmall.com but they don't offer any sales. I suspect they are a conduit for Axis360.

Now I don't have too many options where to buy epubs: Kobo - Often expensive Feedbooks - Very good for free ebooks, but limited on big titles. Average price. Ebooks.com - Good, but not very cheap. Often comparable to Kobo. Diesel-Ebooks - Comparable to BOB, IMHO. WHSmith - Just links to Kobo Waterstones - Doesn't let me buy. I'm not in the UK. Foyles - Doesn't let me buy. Don't have a UK credit card. Barnes&Noble - Doesn't let me buy. I'm not in the US (but can select "Netherlands" as credit card company, after which it doesn't accept any address...) Amazon - Doesn't even sell epubs. I've found http://www.booktopia.com.au/, but I haven't tried buying from them. They've got some of the somewhat more obscure / smaller titles and authors I'd like to read. Quote:
Is Diesel the owner of OmniLit? Why would they do that, and not just merge the two stores? Quote:

I refuse to pay for one-reader-only formats such as Kindle's AZW. Then I'd have to convert to get the book into my epub base format, change what I want to change, and then convert back. Not gonna happen. |

No, All Romance eBooks owns OmniLit. They started it as a store for titles that aren't romance. Diesel does own another site called Ebook-Eros which focuses on Erotica/Erotic Romance (& regular romance?).

BoB selling their mailing list?
I received something from daily-i.com (iphone news site, I guess) today at my email that has only been used for emails from Books on Board. If I start getting more spam at that address, I'll be sure.
