removing the Kobo Plus DRM?
Hello
I have a question about removing DRM. I want to know How can I remove DRM from the Kobo Plus books? |

It's unlikely you'll be able.
The DeDRM/NoDRM tools were designed to let you liberate the DRM from books you legally purchased. For this reason, the tools will never support decrypting the DRM used in things like Libby/OverDrive. I imagine Kobo Plus would fall into that same category. You haven't really "bought" the books--you're in effect borrowing them. |

Just buy the books instead of using Kobo Plus. Problem solved.

Kobo Plus pays authors based on how much time you spend reading the book, so if you remove the book from the Kobo Plus tracking system, the author won't get paid. Even if you could do it, you shouldn't.

And yet, they have, and I am guessing still do.

They have no choice but to support both, since the methods for delivering book purchases and library loans are the same.
