EPUB is not a competing DRM scheme. It's the standard for virtually every other reader and store, and the kindle doesn't support it.

- msbarnett 16y agoWhich is a completely separate issue from the claim that the kindle is a locked down device that can only view content bought from Amazon. In my experience, every DRM-free ebook store I've dealt with has been happy to sell me a .mobi.
- moultano 16y agoStill, the reason they doesn't support epub is most likely because it would make it easier to get books from sources other than amazon. The OP was finding it regretable that they have the motivation to do things like this.
- whyaorta 16y agoConversion between (DRM-free) EPUB and MOBI is pretty much trivial. It's a pain, but it's hardly a problem.
- pmcginn 16y agoDownload Calibre to manage your ebooks. It makes conversion pretty much transparent, and with the right plugins you can set it up to remove the DRM from the books you purchase.
