Are any of you hosting their own E-Books? If so which Software are you using and is it compatible with the E-Reader of your choice (if you use one)?

I don’t have an E-Books nor do I have an E-Reader, but I’m considering to dig deeper into the business and wanted to hear your stories.

Kindle screens are very good , but eff Bezos

An iPad is versatile, but then Apple…

But FOR ME, I cannot read books on a computer screen, it is just too awkward.

So yes I iPad.

Kobo is good.

Unless they have changed something recently, Boox violates the GPL.
