Then you open the Sage to its Dropbox, do a sync and the epub will download to your Sage. If so, you can move the epub into Dropbox's Kobo folder which the Sage sets up when you first set up Dropbox in the Sage. This leaves you with standard epub I'm assuming. You can remove this DRM using this software.

IBooks are in epub format but also has DRM called Apple Fairplay.

It also has a slightly better web browser than Kindles. I have a Kobo Sage which has Dropbox built in. Note - Amazon is moving towards supporting. But Kindle and Apple Books cannot, now can they read each other's.) The closest to a 'standard' DRM encoding is Adobe Digital Editions (ADE) which is used by several different vendors (Kobo, Google Play, Pocketbook can all read ADE encoded books, I believe. Kindle, Apple Books, Kobo, Google Play all use different DRM encoding, and you cannot easily share books between ecosystems. If a book has DRM, then you usually need to use an ereader/app that is connected to that specific ecosystem. In short - if the book is DRM-free, you can use any e-reader you prefer. If a book comes with no DRM, then you can usually get it in a format your ereader displays. Zlib apparently also has options to download in the format you need. epub formats, and none of them have DRM protections on them. Most of those books can be downloaded in. You can read project gutenberg books on either a Kindle or a Kobo. The tablet allows you have a lot of control over the print, background, etc.

So, if a computer is needed, why bother with an unreliable ereader. I went to a computer (tablet) because the downloads required a computer. When you are visually impaired, you have to enlarge the letters, and the Kobo can do that.

Now why was this useful function hidden? And why were library downloads so difficult? And 2 months after the Kobo died, it started working again (obviously a software issue that an update fixed)? There might be a message here.

However, I found the secret code that let me convert the Kobo to dark mode (black background). Now as to e-ink-I am visually impaired-I know what I am talking about. Well, that is not how it is supposed to work, but it is my experience.

About half the time, the Kobo refused to do the download so, I had to first download to my computer and then sideload into the Kobo. Most books were downloads from the library (using Overdrive).
