If you know how to remove DRM, you're not locked into an ecosystem, no matter which reader you use. You can read Kindle books on a Kobo, Kobo books on a Kindle and so on.

But the Boox makes it so easy is what makes it worth buying, as you can just download and use the Kobo app, kindle, its, far less hassle and its not just ebooks, but use apps, etc, and SD card support is a big plus. Ways to get rid of DRM to use on kobo, etc is a hassle

YMMV, of course. I know that many people are not interested in liberating and managing their ebooks, but this limits their choices in ereaders. I can buy absolutely any ereader out there and read any of my ebooks on it. Last edited by Sirtel; Today at 06:55 AM. |

But other ebook readers, cannot sideload apps, the boox being android and has playstore, makes it far better and versatile over any other ebook reader and the reason I will be going for the boox, and no need to muck around like you are, not everyone wants to do this.
You dont get it? The boox is more than just an ebook reader and that makes it far more useful |

Yes, I know not everyone wants to "muck around". But buying a Kobo or a Kindle doesn't necessarily mean that the buyer will be tied to their ecosystem - if the buyer is willing to "muck around" a bit, they won't be. |

Well I do, an all in one system and the SD card is a massive advantage, and to use an SD card up to 1tb, which is a hugh advantage and no mucking around at that
