Which one should I get? Can I jailbreak them somehow to get quick access to infinity books?I'm also gonna need it to be able to:>have offline translation and dictionary functions (but still be able to connect to the internet when necessary)>allow adding my own non-book PDFs>leave persistent notes and scribbles on files >create my own notes and writings
>>25591841Kindle does all this without jailbreaking it but people here will insist it sucks balls. All I'll admit is that the controls for navigating your library are clunky.
Kobo. But the best models are the old libras. Why they don't have a B&W libra for sale now is beyond me.My kobo H2O is still working fine. No one should ever get kindles.
>>25591849>people here will insist it sucks ballsThere's just no point of getting it over a Kobo if you are going to sideload anyway. It's €20-30 more expensive, but for something that will last you decades that's not going to make a difference.
>>25591841no one will be able to fix your device when it eventually breaks if it isn't a kobo, boox, or a kindle, but...>>25591849amazon has in the past removed e-books from user's devices. i wouldn't buy one.
You know you can get a cheap tablet that you don't have to worry about jailbreaking and all of that, right?
>>25591841Is a 13 inch iPad ideal for pdfs? And is a refurbished iPad Air sufficient or do I need to sell blood and sperm to get a newer iPad Pro?
I've only had a kindle and like it a lot. There's no reason to jailbreak it for pirated books. Just download them and use the send to kindle website.
I have nothing to contribute since I'm still using my 2013 kindle and pen and paper, I just wanted to say if anyone here actually buys ebooks and/or doesn't know where to easily get them as warez: kill yourself, you are retarded and deserve to be cattle.
>>25592044Have we reached the age where people use a fucking website because they can't work a USB cable anymore? Fuck me, I guess the goyim aren't people after all.
>>25591841just get a cheap computer laptop and read pfs
>>25591885Buying ebooks is so simple with Kindle, how does that work with other platforms? IlI usually pirate, but I occasionally enjoy buying a new ebook as it's released. Is this tedious on other ereaders?>>25591975They won't remove anything you load on there yourself. They can remove any licenses you bought from them at any time, however. If you're using it solely for pirated books, this shouldn't be an issue at all.
>>25591841Kobo. Just download and upload epub. Simple.
>>25591849I see no point in jailbreaking a kindle. Just turn airplane mode on and download books from the internet. I would jailbreak it if that would add more options to sort my books tho because kindle's sucks
>>25592703i do not wish to give money to a company that does such a thing
until it can be demonstrated otherwise, I consider them slow, overpriced, and generally gimped on purposeit's like the graphing calculator racket
I've used Kobos since 2010. Never had a problem. Wish they still made a midsize B&W reader, instead of just small and large.If you're sideloading your own content it makes more sense to me than a Kindle. Life's too short to buy a product you can never connect to the internet or update without breaking your own shit.
>>25591841>allow adding my own non-book PDFsthat's not what e-readers are for
>>25591985I vastly prefer reading on my Kobo than any of the several tablets I have that span the quality range. Unless you're talking pdfs >>25592007The iPad Air is perfectly fine. Sometimes I feel like my 13" Pro is too big>>25592066I pirate but I also buy books to support authors I like. I have a disposable income
>>25591841kindles are super shit for PDFit’s so laggy, size too small too
>>25591841handwriting on eink sucks, also tablets that support that are super expensivealso again, lag
Kobo is great.I wish the Paranga or that one flexiprototype I forget the name of got off the ground though. An ereader that was basically a book you could reflash the pages of? Yes please.
Anyone have an opinion on Boox?
Let's say, hypothetically, that I've been self-publishing a novel, and am about ready to start selling e-books of it on my own website.Which file formats should I be sure to have it for sale in? I have Calibre so I can do a lot.
>>25596148I appreciate the page buttons and side mounting.
>>25596148I have Onyx Boox Lomonosov 2, absolutely massive screen. No jailbreaking required because it's Chinese. Good battery, nice interface, no lagging bugging. But I never owned any other e-reader, so can't compare.Best $300 buy I ever did. If I had to sell everything and remain only with one device, that would be it.
