Amen to that. And gently caress regional differences. Idoru by William Gibson, $6.99 on a US ebook store, £6.99-£8.49 on UK sites. My limey money not worth as much apparently.

I think you're going to start seeing people breaking ebook drm as a thing that everyone will be doing, but news outlets and other companies will just pretend it doesn't exist and refuse to acknowledge it.

To further that point, amazon is much less successful in Europe, to say that they have a near monopoly is very US centric.

Tutu posted:If I want to buy Norwegian Wood and they don't have it in the UK kindle store, are there any other ways I can get it legally, like other ebook places that might sell it? http://www.cyberread.com/Norwegian-Wood/MURAKAMI-HARUKI/id385432/ Does that work for you?

Ara posted:The epub is an Adobe Digital Editions, so if you can break the DRM on that then you can convert it in Calibre. Are you buying that because the movie just came out? I'm going to see it this week, pretty stoked for it. This is what I would do.

El Bandit posted:It had never occurred to me to buy an eReader until someone in my office brought in a Kindle on Friday and I realised I had to have one. My Wi-Fi version is being delivered on Wednesday (I have an iPhone already, so the 3G functionality would be largely redundant). You could use calibre to make ebooks of newspapers automatically and have them emailed to you, but you won't get the full range of articles, only those that are posted on the website.

The download is always fast for me, but installing takes forever because of "computing space requirements".  I have hundreds of GB of free space.

Centipeed posted:Are we assuming that if Amazon gets a monopoly through which it can influence book pricing, they'll drive the prices up? The reason Valve get away with being such a "nice" company comes down to them being privately owned. Gabe Newell and the other Valve directors can do just about anything they want within reason and they don't have to justify it to shareholders only interested in extracting maximum short term quarter to quarter profit. If Amazon become a near-monopoly in the field of ebooks, the shareholders would be demanding to know why Jeff Bezos isn't reaming each of his customers for every penny he can get.

I'd really like a new high end Kobo with a USB C port. My old one died and I don't want to buy one with micro B, all my other devices are C at this point. Are there any rumblings of new models coming any time soon? All I've seen this year is the Nia mid range model. Edit. I uh just caught up with this page. This wasn't supposed to be a wind up. 😬
