\n<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\nPart 1: <\/strong>Brief Introduction to Kobo and Kindle<\/h2>\n
The Kobo eReader is an e-reader produced by Toronto-based Kobo Inc. As a major competitor to Kindle and other eReader devices like Nook, Kobo provides great convenience for you to read books on the go. The latest version of Kobo, Aura H\u2082O Edition 2, was released in May 2017. It has a 6.8-inch E Ink HD Carta waterproof IPX8 display at 265 ppi. Its LED light, called the \"ComfortLight PRO\", can automatically reduce blue-light exposure during the night to lower the screen's effect on sleep. The Kobo supports EPUB and PDF documents (including those with Adobe DRM). That means you should have no trouble accessing the thousands of free public-domain books, such as those available via Google Books. <\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\nOn the other hand, Amazon Kindle is a series of e-readers designed and marketed by Amazon. Amazon Kindle devices enable users to browse, buy, download, and read e-books, newspapers, magazines and other digital media via wireless networking to the Kindle Store. All Kindle devices integrate with Kindle Store content, and as of March 2018, the store has over six million e-books available in the United States. Amazon has provided quite great number of eBooks for Kindle owners to download and read. This device accepts eBooks in ePub, PDF, and TXT file formats. <\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nPart 2: <\/strong> Why Can't I Read eBooks from Amazon on Kobo <\/h2>\n
Now, let's get back to the question \"can I buy Amazon eBooks for Kobo\". From the above information, we have learned that Kobo actually supports ePub and PDF files, which are available on Amazon and Kindle devices. However, when you try to buy eBooks from Amazon for Kobo, you will find that you can't load these eBooks to Kobo device. Why? There is a thing called DRM protection that prevents you from doing this. <\/p>\n
DRM, aka Digital Right Management, is a set of access control technologies for restricting the use of proprietary hardware and copyrighted works. Most eBooks purchased from Amazon are DRM protected, which means you could only read these eBooks on authorized Kindle devices you\u2019ve owned. Therefore, you couldn\u2019t transfer the purchased eBooks from Amazon to Kobo for reading.<\/p>\n
