    That was an interesting read.

    If you wanna own your audiobooks you might wanna check out https://libro.fm/ - they allow you to download the bought audiobook without drm.
    I gladly accept tips for similar sites when it comes to buying ebooks.

      Kobo does drm-free ebooks when the publisher allows it, so it’s on a case-by-case basis but I have got a lot of them drm free

        Not the most ethical, but kobo is also very easily de-drm’d with calibre.

        Actually no this is not even unethical, I did actually pay for those books.

    I bought my first ebook from amazon

    Just don’t do that. If you give money to this company, they’ll continue to go down the path they’re on. Enshitification.
