They don't sync anything about side loaded books. But, as the question was about buying from them, that doesn't really seem relevant. |

I actually have about 100 books in the Kobo store that I bought in the Sony store, and then they were transferred to Kobo when Sony dropped their store. Testing isn't a problem.

No, I have a mac mini that I keep at Sierra for that, but then again, that's one of the reasons I don't buy very many books from the Apple book store. I tried the Apple book store just to see if the buying experience is better. Apple does do a better job of giving me what I'm looking for, they just don't have a big selection. While there is promise in the Apple bookstore, it's still undelivered and they really don't give me a reason to switch.

Thanks for the word on how to remove DRM with the current version of ADE.
I should have been explicit on what I was searching for with this thread. My question is what would make you switch ebook stores? I suspect for a percentage, it would be cheaper eBooks and I know what I'm looking for, but what feature would make you switch? |

For books from Kobo, there isn't anything to do. Sign into the device and the app using the same account. Purchased books will sync to both. Read in one place, sync it and then sync the other and the status updates. It definitely works.

You can spin up a VM with a previous version of macOS and ADE 2.0.1.
