I really don't understand why people buy Kindle. I bought Kobo reader in 2015. It still works perfectly and receives software updates. Transferring books or PDF

  I really don't understand why people buy Kobo. I bought a Pocketbook from 2007. It still works perfectly and does not need software updates (nor does it have internet). Transferring books or PDFs is as easy as plugging the device into my computer.

  I use the Kindle store because it has the content I want and it's dead simple to use. Kobo doesn't have the Kindle Unlimited books that I like reading.

  I also own a Kobo reader, and I'm especially delighted with the unofficial KOReader software. I've installed it aside the official Kobo software which I don't use anymore. http://koreader.rocks http://koreader.rocks I believe it is suitable for power users that want more control on their reader (gestures, shortcuts, navigation, override text presentation...). I prefer to organize the ebooks in a hierarchy of directories while ignoring completely the categories, and this is the way KOReader works.

  Some of us bought (or were gifted) Kindles when they were brand new, and pretty much the only game in town...my sister handed down her Kindle 1 to me she moved to a Kindle DX. A few years ago I bought a Likebook Mars (an e-ink tablet) and sent it back a few days later, because the Android-based reader software (Kindle reading app and others) was awful compared to the Kindle itself, and even the iOS version of the Kindle software.
