I want to buy open source drm free e-books however I see Kobo that is a Canadian subsidiary owned by a Japanese Company while Apple is American with some operations based in Canada, California is closer to British Columbia however they often use closed standards.
It’s just that I’m already in the Apple ecosystem
If your sole function is reading, don’t get an Apple device. If you want to be able to do other things too, MAYBE Apple starts to make sense.
